Tony Ferguson hasn’t lost since 2012, with his streak the longest in the UFC. His unorthodox style sets him apart from most fighters. ‘El Cucuy’s’ constant pressure and insane cardio makes it a living hell for most of his opponents. The fighter has won ‘fight of the night’ bonuses in 5 of his last 6 bouts, with this fight promising to be a blockbuster of an event.
Justin Gaethje, on the other hand, accepted this fight on short notice, stepping in for Khabib Nurmagomedov. Despite Gaethje being a replacement, ‘The Highlight’ is a force to be reckoned with. Gaethje is known for his dirty boxing and his extreme durability. His chin has been tested numerous times, but Gaethje’s endurance has prevailed against all odds.

“For a new fan that doesn’t know the stories behind the fights, they’re just going to enjoy a good night of action. But for the hard-core fans, this is an absolute treat. I gotta say: Do we even deserve this? As fight fans, have we done anything good enough to deserve a card this loaded?” said Sonnen on his channel.
Author’s prediction :
Tony Ferguson vs Justin Gaethje promises to be an all-out war, with both fighters likely to adopt attack as their best defense.
Given the strengths and weaknesses of both fighter’s, my pick is Tony Ferguson. His conditioning, endurance, and his unpredictable style might prove too much for ‘The Highlight’.
