"I've watched Tony's fight against Rafael Dos Anjos many times. Because that version of Ferguson, in my opinion, could beat any fighter in the world. I would hazard a guess that that Tony Ferguson could have beaten even Khabib Nurmagomedov. Back then, Tony was at his peak. Although Ferguson won fights and after the fight with Dos Anjos, he has already started to give up a little," - quotes Chiesa BJ Penn.
Recall that on August 3 at UFC on ABC 7, Chiesa defeated Ferguson with a first-round choke hold.
