Former Interim UFC Lightweight Champion Tony Ferguson admitted that he was thinking about moving to the welterweight division.
“I don’t mind going back to 170 pounds. I knocked out everyone at welterweight. Cutting weight to 155 is not too difficult for me, but I am losing a lot of muscle mass. I hate being so skinny. I look like a little bitch in this weight, I don't like it.
I bust my butt in workouts and eat right to gain muscle mass. Even my father says to me: “Anthony, compete at your natural weight.” I haven't done this in a long time," Ferguson said in an interview with MMA Junkie.
Recall that on May 7 at UFC 274, Ferguson lost by knockout to Michael Chandler. For the 38-year-old American, this defeat was the fourth in a row.
