Tony Ferguson is one of the best fighters in the entire UFC. If not the best, he certainly is superlative when it comes to the amount of passion which he inserts into each and every fight he is a part of.

After defeating Anthony Pettis, Tony Ferguson is the obvious Number 1 Contender for the UFC Lightweight Championship. Now, the Champion, Khabib Nurmagomedov is out of action until the Nevada Athletic Commission hands out a decree about his future.

Even if the suspension is for a short period, Ferguson will possibly have to wait for the Nurmagomedov fight, with Khabib and Floyd 'Money' Mayweather exchanging barbs over social media about a possible fight against each other.

If this were to happen, it would mean that Ferguson would have a huge waiting period ahead of him before his fight for the UFC Lightweight Championship.

What better fight could he hope for during this time, than one with 'Notorious' Conor McGregor?

A fight against Conor McGregor would help him to wait out the time until he could compete for the UFC Lightweight Championship. The fight could even be for the Interim title. This could be the ultimate bout for him before finally facing Khabib Nurmagomedov.
