Michael Chiesa makes prediction for ‘striking extravaganza’ between Max Holloway and Calvin Kattar
Before he closes the show on Jan. 20, UFC welterweight, and analyst, Michael Chiesa is excited to watch the featherweight main event four nights earlier.
Chiesa will headline Wednesday’s UFC Fight Island 8 event against Neil Magny, while Max Holloway and Calvin Kattar take center stage this Saturday at UFC Fight Island 7. Both events take place at the new Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi. Saturday’s card will be the first mixed martial arts fight card to air on ABC.
Holloway is looking to get back in the win column after dropping consecutive title fights to Alexander Volkanovski. “Blessed” looked to regain his title in July at UFC 251 and was on the wrong side of a controversial split decision.
