Tony “El Cucuy” Ferguson has just been honored with a fan proposed nickname, and it’s a good one.
Ferguson captured UFC interim gold with his dominant win over the very capable Kevin Lee, nearly three-weeks ago, in the UFC 216 main event.
Now, as it would seem, the rising UFC star is on a direct collission course with the UFC’s biggest star in Conor McGregor.
Ferguson has repeatedly called out Conor over the years, and during his title winning post-fight victory speech he took to the mic and called him out again.
Calling him “McNugget” during the post-fight interview, fight fans seem to have grabbed ahold of that remark, and they don’t want to let go.
A new hilarious edit to Tony’s wikipedia shows the new fighter nickname as, “McNugget Killer”.
Should Tony keep it?
Here’s a screen cap of Tony’s new name:
Currently a fight between Tony Ferguson and Conor McGregor has not been booked. However, rumors state the two could meet in the UFC 219 main event on December 30.
