UFC 238’s Tony Ferguson on shaky relationship with Dana White: ‘He’s not my boss’

Tony Ferguson is not on the best of terms with Dana White.

The former interim lightweight champion seems to have taken major offense to White’s derogatory comments about him wearing shades prescription glasses indoors and, just earlier this week, ‘El Cucuy’ called the UFC president a ‘fathead.’

Now, in a separate interview with MMA Junkie, Ferguson revealed that he is trying to distance himself from the head promoter and said he is under no obligation to treat White as his boss.

“There was a lot of emotional damage,” Ferguson said at Thursday’s UFC 238 media scrum in Chicago.
