Vicente Luque can be dangerous when fighting in the Octagon. Michael Chiesa quickly discovered that at UFC 265..
Chiesa initially fared well on his feet against Luque, but quickly found himself in trouble after taking the back and threatening a submission. Unable to get the tap, he was caught in transition by a D’Arce choke, Luque’s favorite octagon submission, at the 3:25 mark of the opening frame.
In advance of Luque’s headliner on Saturday against Belal Muhammad, the UFC has made the full fight available for free for fans. It is available to view above.
Muhammad is unbeaten in 7 of the past 8 matches, and Luque won 4 straight. When they meet in Las Vegas at UFC APEX, both welterweights will be hoping to make it on the final list for title shots. The event airs live on ESPN and ESPN+.
