Michael Chiesa suggests Ilia Topuria title shot could go to Jean Silva

Michael Chiesa stated he would not be surprised if Jean Silva receives a title shot instead of Movsar Evloev, citing Evloev's history of fight cancellations. Chiesa noted that Evloev has been scheduled for over 20 fights but has competed in only about 10, with issues including staph infections and injuries. He suggested these problems stem from overtraining and excessive workload. While Chiesa believes Evloev deserves the title shot, he expressed concern that the opportunity might go to Silva instead.
