Tony Ferguson is on a warpath for the lightweight title. The fighter missed his chance for the interim belt at UFC 209, when his co-main event match up against Khabib Nurmagomedov was unexpectedly cancelled. Nurmagomedov was rushed to the hospital, forcing the fight to be removed. Headlining last weekend’s UFC 216 event, Ferguson finally got his chance at the interim title in a fight against Kevin Lee. Submitting his opponent, “El Cucuy” was crowned champion. Of course, Ferguson is not satisfied with the interim title. Next on his list is UFC superstar and lightweight champion Conor McGregor. This time, “El Cucuy” has a message for “Notorious.”
Directly after his submission victory over Kevin Lee, Ferguson called out McGregor for his next match up. That being said, the call outs will surely not end there. Most recently Ferguson took to Twitter with a darker message for the McGregor.
Here is what “El Cucuy” had to say:
“The Man That Calls Himself A GOD @TheNotoriousMMA I’ll Make Him Bleed And Bow Before Me.”

Conor McGregor is coming off of a TKO loss in his professional boxing debut against Floyd Mayweather Jr. McGregor made the payday of his career against the boxing legend, taking home an expected $100 million from the performance. Now fight fans are on the edge of their seats waiting to see what “Notorious” will do next.
