CONFIRMED: Rafael dos Anjos vs. Tony Ferguson Headlines Mexico City Card

[Jin Akutsu]

I think Dos Anjos kicks the crap out of him.

 

[Gabe]

Good fight but kind of lame. What is Ferguson gonna have to do to get a title shot?

 

[kenCs]

Bullshit if Khabib gets the shot. Sit out for two years and beat an unknown earns you a shot? Fucking lol.

 

[Hans Gercmiov]

I hope this means Lando gets the title shot.

 

[J0N0]

Ferguson has earned a title fight, and him against Alvarez is a great fight on paper

why would two non-mexicans headline an event in Mexico

Defeat RDA. Then he will get the TS.
So Khabib is fighting for the title. Hell yeah

 

[sirmorbach]

I don't like this matchup. RDA probably smokes Ferguson and a possible Ferguson vs. Khabib for the belt eventually wouldn't happen.

 

[NightwingBJJ]

What about Ferguson's title shot?

I know @JohnyBrabo would love for Fergie to win

 

[The-AxeMurderer]

Great match up. Lets hope it comes to fruition.

I favor RDA though

Turn himself into khabib, conor, or nate because I'm pretty sure one of them is next

Because there are soooo many Mexican fighters in the UFC that are worthy of headlining a card right?

 

[Cptn1NSAN0]

Hmm. They must be doing Khabib vs Barboza then. I would've preferred RDA vs Barboza and Khabib vs Fergy. Or maybe they're just giving Khabib a title shot.

You mean dry hump people?

 

[xMaxPower]

I favor Cucuy by a little bit. People might write him off because of what Vanatta was able to do, but Vanatta is the real deal imo.

Cucuy impressed me with his jab against Vanatta. He does not telegraph them which is why he was able to connect on most of them on an elusive Vanatta.

Tony Ferguson is Mexican though.

 

[JohnyBrabo]

Looks like they are gonna give the title shot to the Nate/Conor winner. Or Khabib.

 

[MayhemMonkey]

Tony ducking Khabib, but I'll watch RDA starch him happily

Well Ferguson is of Mexican heritage, speaks fluent Spanish and his nickname is "el cucuy".. So..
