In the match against Justin Gaethje at UFC 249 in May 2020, Tony Ferguson had to leave the stage with a series of injuries such as tearing eyes, cracking skull but was not the organizers who responded to money for treatment.
As a result, Ferguson had to spend his own money to stay in the hospital. It took nearly a year later, “El Cucuy” was allowed to receive support from the tournament organizers.
“I have just received insurance for the last match in Jacksonville,” Tony Ferguson said in a recent post.
“At that time, blood flowed everywhere, the bones were broken.
Finally, Ferguson also demanded insurance after contacting a high -class department. Everything was taken care of by himself despite being injured after the match.
Despite being very dissatisfied with UFC's behavior, Tony Ferguson must continue to stick with this tournament for a while. On May 15, Ferguson will face with Beneil Dariush, who has 6 consecutive victories.
“Dariush is not mediocre. He is a tough boxer. But I'm not inferior. Now I'm lying at another level,” Ferguson added.
Ferguson currently has two consecutive defeats against Justin Gaethje and Charles Oliveira. If you do not win the next match, Ferguson is likely to think about goodbye to the UFC.
