After several weeks of exchanging words and warnings, it looks like Tony Ferguson and Khabib Nurmagomedov could be fighting March 4th, at UFC 209.
Recently it was reported that the UFC was attempting to book a bout between the top, lightweight contenders, except that Ferguson was holding out for more money. The contract dispute even prompted Nurmagomedov to offer Ferguson $200,000 of his own money, in an effort to lock-up the bout.
Although the UFC hasn’t made any official announcement regarding a bout between the two, on Tuesday, Ferguson tweeted out this:
