I guess this qualifies as “mischief.”
I understand that you can’t wrap fighters in bubble wrap during fight week, but something about watching Tony Ferguson flying through the air like a lunatic and performing WWE-style moves into a foam pit gives me anxiety when we’re this close to a pay-per-view (PPV) event.
And before you accuse me of overreacting just remember that A) Ferguson turns 37 in February and B) this is the same guy who was bounced from his Khabib Nurmagomedov main event at UFC 223 because he tripped over his own two feet.
