‘El Cucuy’ will look to overturn his disastrous 2020 where he lost consecutive bouts for the first time in his professional career. After suffering a TKO loss to Justin Gaethje at UFC 249, Ferguson was dominated for 3 rounds by Oliveira at UFC 256.
Many believe his powers are on the wane, but Ferguson is determined to prove his doubters wrong. His work ethic and durability still remain unquestionable. Also, there isn’t much to discredit his fighting skills, rather it’s his decisions that have rather let him down over the last year.
