“If I can go there and win Vincent Luque, there is no reason why it can't be me (the next challenger). If I can get there and have my hand raised, that's enough for me to claim my right. I'm already pestering Hunter Campbell (UFC executive) about this,” said Chiesa, in an interview with the 'James Lynch' channel on YouTube.

Despite being confident that he can beat the Brazilian, Michael considers Luque to be the most dangerous fighter he has ever faced. He also highlights the power of Vicente to get the 'Performance of the Night' and 'Fight of the Night' bonuses to enhance his opponent's game.

“There’s no guy I’ve ever fought that’s more dangerous than the Vincent Luque. I mean, he's racking up bonuses in every fight. He is very dangerous and I am well aware of the threats he poses. He's a killer, man. That's why I have to stay alert on fight night. If you start to become indifferent to Vincent Luque, something will escape him and he will knock you out or suffocate you”, added the fighter.
