Khabib Nurmagomedov vs Tony Ferguson is one fight that almost every fight fan wanted to see. The two were scheduled to fight a total of five times. However, the fight was always interrupted by either injuries, travel restrictions, or medical problems.

Soon after Khabib’s retirement, Ferguson has been trolling him and trying to book a fight against the eagle. In his most recent dig, the fighter posted an edited image of himself elbowing Khabib Nurmagomedov in the face. The Russian’s manager, Ali Abdelaziz, did not let this slide and took to Twitter to slam Ferguson.

He wrote, “you only can do this with Photoshop,” and added laughing emoticons in the tweet as well.

This wasn’t the only exchange that Ali Abdelaziz had with Tony Ferguson. He also slammed ‘El Cucuy’ for wanting attention on the post that Ferguson made of himself and Nurmagomedov as The Ultimate Fighter coaches.

The two rivals are rumored to be the coaches for The Ultimate Fighter’s next season, and Dana White also encouraged this idea. However, there has been no official confirmation from either party as of yet.
