14 Wild UFC Fights You'd Be A Fool To Miss In January
3. Neil Magny Vs. Michael Chiesa
It's quite rare to see a fight on a Wednesday, but there's nothing wrong with a little bit of mid-week violence to help get you through to the weekend. Topping the bill of UFC on ESPN 20 are welterweight contenders, Michael Chiesa and Neil Magny.
Magny's well-rounded skillset has made him a nightmare opponent for everyone that isn't part of the 170lb elite so far. However, he's recently added a bit of a mean streak to his game that seems to have brought him to the next level. This was most noticeable in his bout against Li Jingliang, where he battered his opponent for 15 minutes.
Since Chiesa made the move up to 170lb, he's looked absolutely sensational. He's used his exceptional grappling skills to manhandle the likes of Carlos Condit and Rafael dos Anjos, submitting the former with a one-handed kimura.
Although both men being so dangerous has the potential to turn into a dull affair, it's highly unlikely to be the case in this situation.
