Tony Ferguson didn’t hold back when a UFC star asked to grapple with him.
Throughout his time in combat sports, ‘El Cucuy’ has proved his talent beyond doubt.
As well as, he’s never shied away from engaging in trash-talk, with Ferguson recently reigniting his feud with Khabib Nurmagomedov.
And recently, one other talented competitor felt the American’s wrath.

Tony Ferguson sent Arman Tsarukyan a warning
On Saturday evening, Tony Ferguson will fight Salt Papi in a boxing match at Misfits 22, contained in the AO Arena in Manchester, UK.
Nonetheless, while the warrior is specializing in the sweet science for now, he isn’t against doing other things, especially after his encounter with Arman Tsarukyan.
In an interview with MMA Fighting, he said: “When it goes into MMA, the possibility presents itself, and it does interest me, because I don’t must do it. We walked away, handshakes, and if that presents itself and it is sensible, yeah, we’re going to do it. But without delay the main target is boxing.
“Arman Tsarukyan, after we were over and I used to be doing the Real Fights (reality series), I used to be over there in Thailand, and I don’t know in case you got to see it, people were attempting to take me down. One person tried to take me down, and it wasn’t on film.
“I by chance snapped his arm. He got an underhook, and I snapped his arm. Pulled him in and I threw him in an uchi mata, landed on him, and I walked away, and I went and I hosted a match. It was fast. I did it really quick.
“MMA was one in every of those ways for me to have the option to show and hone all my talents into one thing. That is one other opportunity for me to precise myself.
“Once I was on the market, Arman was like ‘Let’s grapple.’ I used to be like, ‘You don’t need to grapple me.’ He’s like ‘Why?’ [I replied] ‘Because I’ll take your rating’.”
