Conor McGregor, who only recently announced his retirement as an MMA fighter, received a call from former UFC lightweight champion Tony Ferguson. El Cucuy posted a video on his Instagram, which he signed as follows:
“Monday, McNuggets. Let's make UFC great again,” Tony wrote.
On May 10 Ferguson lost to Justin Gaethje. In that battle, the title of interim lightweight champion was at stake. Thus, Gaethje became the official contender for the full title and will face the current champion Khabib Nurmagomedov on September 19.
