Dana White is on board with attempting to book Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Tony Ferguson again, but he is also leaving the door open for a rematch between the reigning lightweight champion and Conor McGregor.
Nurmagomedov and Ferguson have been scheduled to meet on four different occasions, but each time their bout has fallen through for various reasons. However, Ferguson’s current 12-fight winning streak makes him the clear No. 1 contender in the lightweight division, and Nurmagomedov acknowledged as much following a successful title defense at UFC 242 this past Saturday.
