Jum Hwan Choi (born 9 June 1963) is a South Korean former professional boxer in the Minimumweight and Light flyweight division.

Career history

Choi turned professional in 1983 and in 1986 captured the Vacant IBF Light Flyweight Title with a decision win over Park Cho-woon. He defended the belt three times before losing it to Tacy Macalos in a rematch in 1988. He moved down in weight to beat Napa Kiatwanchai for the Lineal and WBC minimumweight titles the following year, but lost the belt in his first defense to Hideyuki Ohashi by knockout, and retired after the loss.
