Former Interim UFC Lightweight Champion Tony Ferguson Reveals Why He’s Not Going To Retire After Losing To Michael Chandler At UFC 274.
Share:“I came home, talked to my father, to the coaches, and told them that if I didn’t have the will and desire to return, if I didn’t do anything good in the first round, I would retire.
I would say: “To hell with all this, I’m resigning and I’ll do something else.” However, I came home, rewatched the fight, and it was like something clicked in my head. I realized that everything was not so sad.
If I didn’t have the will or desire to do this, and if Dana White hadn’t said I looked phenomenal in the first round, I would be done with it all. But I looked good and I feel like I’m hungry as hell,” Ferguson said.
