Chiesa Submits Griffin in Third Round, Eyes Title Run and Seattle Fight

Michael Chiesa defeated Max Griffin by submission in the third round. Chiesa dominated the opening two rounds, leaving Griffin without an effective response.

In the post-fight interview, Chiesa expressed his desire to make another run at the title. With this being his second consecutive win, he may now have a chance to break into the rankings in his next fight. Chiesa also revealed his interest in competing in Seattle on the 22nd of February next year.
