Chiesa: ‘S—t human being’ Colby Covington didn’t earn a title shot and isn’t even a draw

Michael Chiesa will face Vicente Luque at UFC 265 this August, in a bout between two welterweight contenders on impressive win streaks. The winner would have a great case for title contention, along with Leon Edwards, who is unbeaten in his last ten fights, but will they all get passed over?

Chiesa doesn’t seem happy about the idea that Dana White possibly gifting Colby Covington a title rematch, despite being inactive and only fighting once since being knocked out by Kamaru Usman in 2019.

“I think whoever wins between me and Luque should be next,” Chiesa said on Michael Bisping’s podcast.
