Tony Ferguson OUT of UFC 223: Max Holloway vs. Khabib Nurmagomedov | Luke Thomas


Tony Ferguson is out of his fight with Khabib Nurmagomedov. UFC President Dana White made the news official on Sunday. In Ferguson’s place, UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway will step in. What does this mean for both divisions? Does this set up a showdown with Conor McGregor? Why is this fight so cursed? I try to answer these questions and more.



The Luke Thomas Show airs weekdays, 3 to 6pm ET, on SiriusXM RUSH, channel 93.

  1. Once Ferguson is healed up I’m sure he’s stepping into the gym as soon as possible. Then they should just give them like a month to 3 weeks to prepare and fight. They made us wait too long it was inevitable someone was gonna get injured in two months

  2. SIgh*

    what the fuck
    The UFC lost interest the moment JBJ fucked up for good. That's me me personally.
    Conor is dead to me.
    Now khabib and tony…the fight i wanted to see the most this year……gets screwed.

    Tony is screwed for a couple years. All this work and now he is put back a few years in terms of getting a chance at that belt.

    what the fuck……..

    why the FUCK did JBJ take roids? His fighting style was already legit enough. He was learning and doing things well. He could have just kept clean. What the FUCK?

    oh well. Go Khabib.

  3. this is a miss match fucking dumb. max will be out cold with in two mins

  4. Take that fake ass belt away from Ferguson right now. He is only the champion of calling people kid and son. He is a fucking joke. How can this "man of all men", a pip squeak who was gonna ankle pick and pound Verdum be such a punk bitch? he knows Khabib was gonna beat the ever lovin shit out of him so he took the only possible way out where he might still be relevant and get some more t.v. time. I wouldn't pay 5 fukkin dollars to see Tony Faguson fight ever again.
