Khabib’s manager: Tony Ferguson ‘is probably never going to fight again’ after UFC 223

Khabib Nurmagomedov and Tony Ferguson are scheduled to enter the cage together on April 7th at UFC 223. The bout has been a long time coming, and has been the subject of a bunch of confusion surrounding what lightweight belt they’re actually fighting over. But one thing that is a constant in MMA is manager rhetoric, and Ali Abdel-Aziz turned up the volume on that in a recent MMA Hour appearance.

Khabib’s manager didn’t hold back when he was asked about what he thinks about the fight (via MMA Fighting):

“I feel sorry for Tony Ferguson, because on April 7, Tony Ferguson is probably never gonna fight again,” Abel-Aziz said.
