Ferguson was last seen in action back in May. He was defeated by Beneil Dariush via unanimous decision. It was the third straight loss for Ferguson. “El Cucuy’s” recent performances have been a far cry from when he was riding a 12-fight winning streak.

Many have been wondering what’s next for Ferguson. One potential opponent that has been thrown out by fight fans is Dan Hooker. After all, both men have exciting fighting styles and are coming off losses.

The problem is, Ferguson appears to have distanced himself from the fight game for a bit. At least, that’s what Hooker told the folks at Submission Radio.

“He’s gone rogue. Just didn’t pick the phone up. No one from the UFC can get a hold of him. That’s what I’ve been told.”

Instead of being matched up with Ferguson, Hooker is scheduled to collide with Nasrat Haqparast. The bout is set to take place on Sept. 25. It’ll be a part of the UFC 266 card. It’ll be on the preliminary portion.

Good for him. Hopefully he’s alright and he’s doing his own thing somewhere.

Good. He needs to stop. He's already had one psychotic breakdown, he doesn't need to risk another for a bullshit belt for this bullshit company.

 

[Reign009]

Did they try calling him on his leg chip?

I'm just kidding. I hope he's doing alright and just taking a break. We all need one every now and then.

He's on Instagram posting stuff about Khabib, i don't think he is doing alright

 

[IDGETKTFO]

probably on another bender

 

[Juan Bombadil]

I can see it

That’s sad stuff. He got really screwed by how they handled that division. Conor had no business near that belt before Ferg, but the UFC held that division hostage for two years while Ferguson aged and dealt with injuries.
Dang. Lookin sad on da gram

He should fight diaz for an easy win and than retire. He is beyond washed up at this point.

 

[sonhow]

Hopefully he is doing okay. Could call it quits. He already achieved a big winstreak and interim title. Thats easily more than most can say about their mma careers.

Trying to predict where ferguson has gone missing to is going to be impossible.

 

[LivenLearn4988]

Damn the UFC tried to book him for another fight already???

Hope he isn't foolish enough to pull an Evan Tanner..

 

[dragovic]

Guys - him not being able to reach is not a good sign.

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

Probably saw a shiny ballon floating and has been following it for days.

 

[Pizza Werewolf]

Hes probably in the middle of replying with one of those FuCkEd uP TeXtS hE TyPeS OuT LiKe ThIs.

Who the hell wants to see Tony fight Dan Hooker? An 0-2 fighter with an undeserved top 10 ranking calling out an 0-3 fighter with an undeserved top 10 ranking in a desperate attempt to maintain his own ranking. Both of those guys should be fighting rising prospects outside of the top 10 to prove they even belong there.

 

[GreatSaintGuillotine]

For the best that he's not fighting but hope he's doing ok. Dude has been in another world lately
