Tony Ferguson is as enthusiastic as ever about the prospect of squaring off against Khabib Nurmagomedov.
Early Monday morning, “El Cucuy” delivered a message via Twitter to Nurmagomedov regarding their scheduled clash at UFC 249. The post implied that there might be some difficulties between both parties on a potential location for the lightweight championship bout.
“April 18 is getting close [Khabib Nurmagomedov and] you’re hiding in Russia,” Ferguson wrote. “Travel bans will not prevent me from whoopin’ that ass. Don’t use it as an excuse to back out. You have been sent many locations, send us [one].
