Global MMA fans did not take kindly to Ferguson's jab and decided that they would partake in some trolling of their own.
@alnasrii_ said that maybe if 'El Cucuy' lets Nurmagomedov coach him for his next fight, then he "might win" one.
Another fan, @Luisshernandez1, claimed that Ferguson was fixated on 'The Eagle' too much.
Tony Ferguson and Khabib Nurmagomedov were scheduled to fight on five separate occasions, but each time the fight was canceled.
Numerous factors played a role in this matchup failing to materialize, and it was listed as one of Daniel Cormier's top-five 'What if?' fights.
