‘DC’ sheds light on his relationship with ‘El Cucuy’ not being a good one. However, he is all praise for the effort. He says he himself would not have gone through a weight cut for nothing.
“It is a boss move because it is harder to do something when there is no reward at the end. Tony was going to get on that weight. Make that weight. Suffer through the entire weight cut and go back to training. He just did it to show how disciplined and how in control of the entire situation he is.”
Tony Ferguson is ready to fight on May 9. The venue is uncertain as of this moment. It is expected to be the UFC Apex. However Dana White is keeping his cards close to his chest.
