Cormier on Ferguson: “Every champion has one more night”

Former UFC champion in two weight classes Daniel Cormier spoke about the chances of the former temporary belt holder in the lightweight division Tony Ferguson revive your career.

Let us remind you that on December 16 at the UFC 296 tournament, the 39-year-old “El Cucuy”, who is on a streak of six defeats, will meet with prospect Paddy Pimblett.

“Imagine what will happen if Fergsuon wins. I was sitting next to him before his last fight, and he said: “Now there will be a fight. Five more fights and I’ll fight for the belt.” So he didn't lose the desire to fight. He hasn't lost faith that he can become a champion.

There is an old saying: “Every great champion has one more night.” We saw this with George Foreman when he defeated Michael Moorer. Foreman then also had no place in the ring with Moorer,” MMA Junkie quotes Cormier.
