Although the UFC will be holding cards on May 9th, it doesn’t sound like Michael Chiesa will be competing on any cards in the near future.
Due to restrictions on public gatherings and travel to battle the coronavirus, the UFC has been forced to postpone several events to date. But, recently the promotion announced UFC 249 will take place on May 9th in Jacksonville, Florida, and that events will also be held on the 13th and 16th.
Despite those plans, Chiesa recently shared out the statement below.
The 32-year-old Chiesa (17-4) is coming off a decision win over Rafael dos Anjos and has won three straight, since moving up from lightweight to welterweight.
