Khabib Nurmagomedov knows exactly how Tony Ferguson is feeling right now.
Less than two weeks out from a planned UFC on FOX 19 title-eliminator, Ferguson was forced to pull out with an injury.
Nurmagomedov, who has battled injuries for almost two years, expressed his sympathy for the former Ultimate Fighter winner on social media.
While nothing has been made official, Donald Cerrone has offered his services as a late-notice replacement for Ferguson to keep “The Eagle” on the card.
