After defeating Al Iaquinta last weekend, Donald Cerrone once again called for a bout with Conor McGregor, but it looks like “Cowboy” will face Tony Ferguson next.

Recently ESPN’s Ariel Helwani and Brett Okamoto reported that the Cerrone vs. Ferguson is set for UFC 238, June 8th.

Cerrone (36-11, 1 no-contest) earned a decision win over Iaquinta on May 4th, which was his third straight win and his second since returning to lightweight.

Ferguson (24-3) will be fighting for the first time since October, when he recorded a win (corner stoppage) over Anthony Pettis. Recently the former interim champ met with UFC officials to discuss his return. 

UFC 238 will take place in Chicago, Illinois.
