LAS VEGAS – Macy Chiasson believes she’s nearing a title shot and just needs a few more results to get it.
The Ultimate Fighter 28 winner thinks she’s entered title contention following her most recent victory. Chiasson (11-3 MMA, 8-3 UFC) defeated Bueno Silva (10-4-1 MMA, 5-4-1 UFC) by TKO (doctor’s stoppage) on the main card of Saturday’s UFC 303. Now on a two-fight winning streak, the 32-year-old fighter thinks it’s just a matter of winning one or two more bouts before the UFC comes calling with a championship fight.
“I hope so, and I feel like I am (one or two wins away from a title shot),” Chiasson told reporters at the UFC 303 post-fight press conference. “I feel like I’ve put in the work, and I’m exactly right where I’m supposed to be. Mick Maynard and Dana (White) have taken great care of me, so whatever they want next for me, I want it.”
