UFC star Tony Ferguson doesn’t want to let Khabib Nurmagomedov go easily off the hook as he recently ignited their old unfinished business. The formal rivals never exchanged gloves inside the Octagon despite getting booked 5 times. The cursed rivalry involving the two never materialized while the promotion tried to pit the two prolific fighters at the height of their prime. However, the murmurs of a potential bout finally got silenced when the Russian fighter announced his retirement in 2020 after successfully defending his title at UFC 254. But according to fans, the American fighter is still fixated on his old rival, as evidenced by his latest claims.

Notably, ‘El Cucuy’ hit a rough road in the same year ‘The Eagle’ hung his gloves. The 39-year-old slumped to his 5th straight loss against Nate Diaz in the latter’s farewell match at UFC 279. Significantly, the lightweight fighter, who is currently struggling to return to the winner’s column, pinned a $500,000 claim on the MMA fighter-turned-coach and the famed manager, Ali Abdelaziz.
