Morning Report: Khabib Nurmagomedov only interested in fight with Tony Ferguson, Ferguson demands Khabib ‘beg me for it’

On Sunday night after taking a controversial submission win over Michael Chiesa in the main event of UFC Fight Night Oklahoma City, Kevin Lee called out number one ranked lightweight Khabib Nurmagomedov. There’s just one problem with that, Nurmagomedov only has eyes for one man: the eternally unattainable Tony Ferguson.

In a recent interview with RT Sport, Nurmagomedov made it clear that he plans to return in the fall and when he does, the only fight he is interested in is the interim title bout against Ferguson that fell through at UFC 209.
