Geoff Neal: ‘I think Michael Chiesa is f**king scared sh*tless to fight me’

It’s been over six months since Geoff Neal last set foot in the octagon and he’s getting a little tired of waiting for an opponent to accept his challenge.

After demolishing his first five opponents in the UFC with four of those ending by knockout or TKO, the 29-year-old former Contender Series veteran was anxiously awaiting the opportunity to climb into the top-10 rankings.

Unfortunately, Neal says that despite the UFC’s best efforts, the list of fighters willing to face him has been rather short; actually, it’s been non-existent.

“The UFC’s been doing a great job trying to find me a fight,” Neal said when speaking to MMA Fighting.
