You gotta admit. Tony Ferguson took the news of UFC 249 being postponed indefinitely a lot better than many of us.
It’s been an unfortunate situation for everyone involved. For a lot of MMA fans, the originally-scheduled fight between Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Tony Ferguson on April 18 in Brooklyn always had a shadow over it anyway. We’ve been prepared for this since a rib injury took Khabib out of the their Dec. 11 bout in 2015.
Amidst the chaos, Ferguson was in a Zen kind of mood when he learned about the cancellation in real time.
