Following reports that Tony Ferguson is asking for the same money as Khabib Nurmagomedov, if the UFC wants to book a fight between the lightweight contenders, the latter has offered to pay “El Cucuy” $200,000.

Recently Nurmagomedov tweeted out the following comment:

UFC President Dana White has said the promotion is not interested in offering Ferguson the same purse as “The Eagle”, since he recently signed a new contract.

If Nurmagomedov – Ferguson is booked, the winner is expected to advance to a fight with lightweight champ, Conor McGregor.
