LAS VEGAS — If Conor McGregor had not throw a dolly at a bus in Brooklyn before UFC 223, Michael Chiesa believes he would have gotten a title shot on the card.
Chiesa had to pull out of his scheduled fight against Anthony Pettis at UFC 223 due to injuries sustained in the bus attack. Chiesa got class sprayed onto his face and was a bloody mess afterward.
What happened the morning of UFC 223 weigh-ins is what has Chiesa believing for sure that he would have actually been in the Octagon fighting for a UFC belt at Barclays Center.
