Maia called him out for a FIGHT ... then during an interview Chiesa quickly brushed him off talking about how he had another opponent in mind (likely magny). Maia is 41 years old and number 8 in the rankings, a lot of people would beg for opportunities like that. If you're not here to be the best and go for the belt, you better just pack your bags and go home.
Chiesa knows that Maia would submit him. If Lee and Pettis were able to do it in 2 rounds or less, Maia probably gets it done early and easily.
Maia is one of the worst fights possible for Chiesa. Maia strangles him easy — one of the easiest fights for Maia.
Chiesa would get tapped out, and then whine and complain so much afterwards. No thanks. Chiesa is very similar to Dillashaw, he has never ever lost, never his fault.
Bunch of losers in here responding wtf... This is the fight game... it's not the mindset of a champion to think about ways his opponent could style on him. Come up with a good gameplan and shoot your best shot

lmaooo Chiesa was choked out by Kevin Lee who only knows one submission what in the world do you think Maia would do to him?
