Interim UFC lightweight champion Tony Ferguson is on a warpath to unify his title. Now the fighter has formed a rather heated message for the reigning champion to consider during the holidays.
“El Cucuy” was first offered a shot at the interim belt at UFC 209 in a match against Khabib Nurmagomedov. However, the highly anticipated match up would never come to pass. “The Eagle” was rushed to the hospital due to weight management issues, leading to the fight’s unexpected cancellation.
Ferguson went on to fight Kevin Lee for the title at UFC 216, choking out the fighter for the interim belt. Now “El Cucuy” is looking to move on to his next target, UFC lightweight champion Conor McGregor.
“Notorious” has yet to lock in his long awaited octagon return since making his professional boxing debut in August. That being said, Tony Ferguson is still hard at work trying to goad the champion into making a swift return.
Taking to Twitter, Ferguson stated:
