While former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov believes that Tony Ferguson’s time in the sport is up, he’s sympathized with his decision to keep fighting. In early 2020, Ferguson was being lined up to challenge “The Eagle” for the undisputed 155-pound title. “El Cucuy” had earned that position with a lengthy 12-fight win streak that…

Nate Diaz shares a backstage conversation he had with Dana White after his submission victory over Tony Ferguson at UFC 279.
Diaz’s relationship with the UFC was rocky heading into his final bout at UFC 279. He was asking for everyone on the roster, and it took so long for him to find an opponent. The UFC finally booked him against Khamzat Chimaev, but due to unforeseen circumstances, Diaz took on Ferguson instead. Chimaev missed weight by 8.5 pounds and forced the UFC to do some last minute adjustments to the PPV card.
Diaz is one of the biggest stars in the MMA world, due to his “eff you” attitude that he brings to every fight. His bout against Ferguson was just another example of that attitude. He was constantly joking around the entire fight, and turned his back to Ferguson multiple times.
“Congrats. Good luck with everything, man. This is always your f*cking house. If you need anything, whatever you need, it’s your house kid.” White told Diaz after his victory.
"This is always your house kid."

It is currently no known what Diaz will be doing in the future when it come to fighting. As of now, he is starting his own fighting promotion. The promotion name is “Real Fight Inc.”, and will host boxing, jiu-jitsu, and, MMA bouts. Diaz is currently getting his promoting license, to put these fights on.
Diaz has also gotten calls from BKFC, who are interested in putting together a fight against Mike Perry. Diaz has also been in back and forth with Jake Paul multiple times, so that could always be a possibility as well. One thing for sure, is that the UFC will most likely bring back Diaz for his trilogy bout against Conor McGregor. There is too much money on the table for all parties, to not want to do that fight one last time.

Tony Ferguson slammed Daniel Cormier for suggesting he step away from fighting.
This past Saturday, Ferguson took on Nate Diaz on a day’s notice at UFC 279 after Chimaev missed the welterweight limit for his headlining bout with Diaz. Ferguson dropped his fifth straight outing when he lost to Diaz by submission, leading “DC” to comment that he was done.
In an interview with Brett Okamoto of ESPN, “El Cucuy” fired back at Cormier for stating that it was time for him to retire.
“When I feel like I’m ready to retire, I will retire,” Ferguson said via MMA Junkie. “But right now it’s a little bit different, a little bit more interesting. DC and all these commentators that just keep repeating the same sh*t in the past couple of years – because that’s what they want me to do. They want the public eye to see me like that and they want to see me as a quitter and so on and so forth.“
Ferguson brought up the infamous ‘towel gate’ incident when Cormier appeared to hold onto a towel to make weight.
“I never cheated to get on the scales to retain my championship like DC – hashtag ‘towel gate,’ – these guys grabbing the towel, trying to lift some pounds off the scale. The UFC (was) right there – they went with it. It’s like an inside job. This guy wants to call it out, I’m going to call you right back out. You don’t have to be an asshole to the people who actually work hard. There’s a lot of up-and-coming fighters that see that sh*t and they’re going to try and go with the clique – and that’s it. So don’t start that sh*t.
“I’ve literally given my shirt off my back to the fans, and same thing with the UFC, and I’ll still take my shirt off to go inside that f*cking octagon and show that I’m the f*cking man. I’m still the f*cking champ.”
