Tony Ferguson has lost his last six fights. This is in sharp contrast to the man who won twelve consecutive fights in a row a few years ago, leading him to the lightweight interim championship. His gladiatorial, devil-may-care attitude to fighting and unique and unusual personality quickly turned him into a fan favorite.
Until his fight with Khabib Nurmagomedov. The fight never materialized due to a bizarre set of events. And Ferguson’s career went downhill soon after. And in his already bizarre fighting career, it seems another item can be added to the list. ‘El Cucuy’, in a video on his Instagram, told his fans that he had been drug tested in quick succession by USADA.

Fans react to Ferguson’s video
In the comments section of his video, fans came out in support of ‘El Cucuyo’. Here is what they had to say.
One Instagram user used the famous Tony-the-type-of-guy meme:
“Tony the typa guy to tag himself in his own vid”
Another felt the best fighters never tested positive:
“Funny how the real legends never drop dirty”
Another expressed it was because Ferguson looked ripped in a recent picture:
“It’s because of that pic of you looking absolutely ripped. they’re like oh hell nah”
One fan thought the testing was because of his resilience:
“USADA be thinking Tony is on steroid since he is still going on after all he been trough,you are my hero Tony”
Another fan reminded everybody of Nate Diaz‘s famous quote
“What did Nate say? Everybody is on steroids. Test Tony as many times as you want just get ready to give him another jacket”
One user was puzzled why the USADA would target Ferguson:
“Idk why they’re testing tony of all people like wtf?”
Another found this hilarious that he filled the cup:
” Jesus you filled the f***ing thing”
Tony Ferguson may have lost the last six fights he has fought in. But, as the fight comments section in his account indicates, he is still very popular among fans. What do you think about Tony being repeatedly tested by USADA? Let us know in the comments section below.
