Tony Ferguson has the longest streak in the UFC

[MetaIIica]

He currently has the most consecutive losses in the UFC, will tony be able to increase the number to 8 and break records ?

UFC used to cut fighters after 2 or 3 losses. This situation is unusual.

A few years back Dan Hardy lost 4 in a row and was still on the roster. I was shocked by that back then....

Put some respect on BJ Penn's name, he'll come back and net some more losses to show Tony what's what.

They take care of guys who've had a long tenure, are fan-favourites and still pull in a good amount of eyeballs even if they hit a slump. Some guys get leeway if their fights are exciting and/or split decision losses.

You gotta take into account a lot of stuff. Tony is a UFC legend, fans love him, his style produces exciting fights and he'll still bring in viewers, even if nowadays it's just to see if he'll snap the streak/be the old Tony one last time.

The only one that's never made sense to me was Alvey.

Tied at 7 with BJ iirc, Alvey made it to like 9 without a win, but he slipped a draw in between loses.

The only one that's never made sense to me was Alvey.

Probably had a low contract and was always a company man, the UFC like guys that say yes all the time.

Haha

It only seems like a few years because I used to watch ALL UFC events at that time in my life. Life happened, things changed, stopped watching for a while, just got back into it a few months ago. I didn't follow much about MMA between the years of 2013-2023 so to me stuff like Dan Hardy vs GSP, although a long time ago, I remember clearly.

It's kinda like when they pulled Captain America out of a block of ice..

 

[Uber_Noober]

He should be at Jessica Eye level of losses now

Tony is the type of guy that will get a belt for most consecutive losses and be a proud mexican about it.

His last win was in 2019 against Cerrone for some reason it feels even longer than that
