Ferguson recently accused Pettis of trying to “big league” him and his team back in late 2014. During a recent appearance on Ariel Helwani’s MMA show on ESPN, “Showtime” offered a response:
“I heard about the post, I don’t follow anybody on social media or anything like that. I’m not sure when he posted it but I know what he’s talking about. It was UFC 181, man that was a long time ago. I was getting ready to fight Gilbert Melendez at the time and he tried to come train at a gym that I was already training at. And my coaches asked his coaches to wait to come back until I was actually done because most likely we would be fighting each other. So if he took that as disrespect, that’s on him. That’s just common sense. You’re not gonna go watch somebody train that you’re gonna be fighting potentially.”
