“I can say that I want to equalize their chances. Because after all, Ferguson is an old fighter. At 36, you can have anything you want. It’s just that you can feel bad that day. And there is no less spirit in Gaethje. So I sincerely say: chances are 60 to 40,” Taktarov said.
Ferguson vs Gaethje battle will be held on May 10 and will headline UFC 249 event. At stake in this confrontation there will be the title of interim lightweight champion.
