Former interim UFC lightweight champion Tony Ferguson revealed what advice he gave to former champion of the promotion in this weight class Islam Makhachev.

“I gave him advice. I know that everyone listens to my advice. My advice was to reach that weight and stay in it for a while. You know, when you jump in weight, your body is not ready. Your body needs to withstand a little more weight. When we talk about managing or losing all that weight, your body needs to adapt," said Ferguson in an interview on the YouTube channel MMA Crazy.
