 McGregor vs Ferguson TUF: UFC News: The UFC might have planned to put Conor McGregor against Tony Ferguson but as coaches in the upcoming season of TUF (The Ultimate Fighter).

Now, in his immaculate peak, ‘The Notorious’ has clarified of receiving an offer to coach at The Ultimate Fighter next season. Interestingly, Tony Ferguson has made similar claims, sending fans into a frenzy.

The MMA community delivered mixed reactions to it, but mostly they seemed thrilled to see McGregor potentially going against Ferguson. One fan even mentioned how Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao kept delivering, even in their final years, validating McGregor’s and Ferguson’s prominence. Here’s a look at the social media reactions.

Conor McGregor and Tony Ferguson were considered arch-rivals a few years back. A fight between them would have been extremely entertaining and profitable for the UFC. However, neither of them is at his peak right now. Ferguson has lost all 4 of his last UFC outings and has been on a win-draught since May 2019. Conor McGregor has also not won a fight since January 2020. Hence, putting them against each other as coaches may make more sense than hosting a fight between the two.

Meanwhile, Tony Ferguson’s UFC career is still uncertain. He has appeared motivated to continue fighting, but his MMA resume looks bleak at this point. Michael Chandler and Nate Diaz finished Tony Ferguson back-to-back, and it seems tough to rebound from that.
