The friction between top lightweight contenders Khabib Nurmagomedov and Tony Ferguson continues to get stronger with each passing day.
After Ferguson made some comments regarding the unbeaten Nurmagomedov in an interview, “The Eagle” fired back. On Twitter, Nurmagomedov stated that he would “kill (Ferguson) fast” when they meet inside the Octagon.
Ferguson responded, stating that it was Nurmagomedov who pulled out of their first fight with an injury.
@TeamKhabib @danawhite @seanshelby I Was Ready For Jan Ace, Your Puss Had Too Much Sand In It Still From The Last Fight. You Talk Too Much ?
