Daniel Cormier urges Tony Ferguson to considering fighting future after UFC 291: ‘Go fight somewhere else’

Following his sixth consecutive defeat at UFC 291 over the course of last weekend, former interim lightweight champion, Tony Ferguson has been urged to consider his fighting future – as well as his future with the organization by former two-weight gold holder and color-commentator, Daniel Cormier.

Ferguson, a former interim lightweight champion under the banner of the UFC, featured on the main card of UFC 291 last weekend in Salt Lake City, Utah – suffering a late, third round arm-triangle choke submission loss to fellow division veteran, Bobby Green.

The defeat came as Ferguson’s sixth on the trot, following prior successive defeats to Nate Diaz, Michael Chandler, Beneil Dariush, Charles Oliveira, and event headliner, Justin Gaethje.
