Before Betting on Tony Ferguson vs. Michael Chiesa
UFC Abu Dhabi on August 3 could be the last time we’ll see some MMA legends fight. For example, 41-year-old Nick Diaz will probably retire after this event. Will his final fight be a success? Read our Luque vs. Diaz preview to find out.
Another veteran who might end his MMA career on August 3 in the UAE is Tony Ferguson. El Cucuy is 40 and is on a 7-fight losing skid. The good news for him is that he’s fighting against another aging fighter who also is on a losing streak.
Michael Chiesa (16-7) is the man in question, who lost his last three fights. What’s interesting is that two of those losses happened by a first-round submission. This is kind of surprising given that he’s a master wrestler/grappler.

Tony Ferguson is without a win in more than five years. Further, he’s without a win in the welterweight division since 2011 when he won The Ultimate Fighter 13.
This could be his redemption fight, but the problem is that we don’t think he’s good anymore. He didn’t look great against Bobby King or Paddy Pimblett, which were his last two opponents.
We think that in 2024, Michael Chiesa is the better fighter. We also think he’s gonna be the one to retire Tony Ferguson.
