Former Interim UFC Lightweight Champion Tony Ferguson refused the offer Charles Oliveira, who had previously offered the American to train in his gym.

ā€œI need to think carefully about this offer, because I see how I will fight Oliveira again. There is no hostility, but I know exactly when to agree and when to refuse. I think now is not the time to go to Chute Boxe and train with him.

There are several halls, I'm going to be a part of one of them. I will help them progress just as they help me grow. My mentality and will to win is still high. On this basis, I need to organize the structure by adding coaching skills and technique. I have everything I need to get back on track and take the belt,ā€ Ferguson said in an interview with MMAjunkie.

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.
