Conor McGregor moved away from MMA to focus on the duel against Floyd Mayweather, which will take place on August 26th, in Las Vegas (USA). However, the Irishman's name continues to be a topic among other UFC fighters. Tony Ferguson, number 2 in the lightweight rankings, provoked the Irishman by ensuring that Conor ran away from a stare when he saw him.

“He looked at me for half a second, and I realized that son of a bitch had seen a ghost. He looked away immediately. I thought that was great, because he knows I'm there. I could do a lot worse if I wanted to, but it's not my style. I'm going to be myself. I won't be Conor McGregor. Personally, I’m a fan of Mayweather’s “Hit and Don’t Get Hit” style,” said Tony, in an interview with the “MMA Junkie” website.

Without fighting since November 2016, when he beat the former champion Rafael dos Anjos No. UFC Mexico, Ferguson did not hide his dissatisfaction with the current situation in the lightweight category. According to him, McGregor is holding back the division.

“This guy is holding back the entire lightweight division. Conor doesn't defend the belt because he wants to try for other goals. Okay, but either defend the belt, or leave it aside”, he concluded.
