There seems to be no love lost between Tony Ferguson and UFC president Dana White
El Cucuy was on the receiving end of one of the most impressive knockouts in recent MMA history at UFC 274 as Michael Chandler’s front kick sent him to sleep.Ferguson was one of the UFC’s marquee names when he was on his 12-fight win streak in the lightweight division, but the 37-year-old has lost his last four outings in pretty emphatic fashion.
“I have nothing against going up a weight class,” said Ferguson . “For a long time, Dana made me feel like shit for going up a weight. But he made me feel like shit for a long time, and when you have people making you feel like sh*t like that, essentially you start to almost believe it. “I’m not gonna let commentary or people have that fault and throw it in my shit. I do that myself, and I do it enough.”Ferguson is implying that White has prevented him from doing what he wanted to do at certain points in his career, including a move to welterweight.On the UFC’s rigid deals, their competitors cannot take part in other sports. Ferguson has previously wanted to get involved with professional wrestling and baseball, but to no avail.
