After Khabib Nurmagomedov’s victory over Dustin Poirier at UFC 242, Dana White already named Tony Ferguson as the next challenger for the champion. But according to the UFC president, that is if “El Cucuy” does not turn the fight down.
Ferguson appeared on the Ariel Helwani MMA Show on Monday to reiterate his intent to fight “The Eagle” once and for all. If it were up to him, it will all go down on December 14th at UFC 245 in Las Vegas.
“If I was in charge, we’re doing this sh-t in December,” he said.
