Trying to cut the mans pay is disgusting
It's ridiculous. The UFC sucks at handling these situations. Those poor fighters... I know they signed up for it, but come on this is just beyond low. I hope they all get a hint and go to Rizin.
well some of them are forced to fight whatever number they signed for. eg Mark Hunt situation he said he dosen't want to be here but his contract etc
Every single one of them is either underpaid or seriously underpaid
Not every single one look at what thehw's make you would be suprised
Tell that to your wife and kid when you're getting peanuts
I honestly didn't expect that much respect and sympathy out of Tony Ferguson... Thumbs up for that bro!!
He is a class and a true nice guy but since he is a real monster inside the cage nobody tries to look closely at his personality
Tony was so happy Khabib backed out. He was overjoyed. He knew he would have a new face if he actually fought Khabib.
@@jeremythevirushuang6303 yeh thats why khabib backed out 3 times against the same opponent...😂
@@jeremythevirushuang6303 Khabibtard spotted
@@user-pc1tx1gl1m Right
what a good guy man . respect this guy so much hope he's the future champ
yea yo a really nice guy, tony ferguson should fight conor next id say he deffinetly deserves a title shot. khabib should learn to cut weight or go up a division.
Jim Morrison Khabib has been crying for title shot since 2014 and he couldn't even make the weight, Tony deserves to fight Conor tho
1NE L1FE I'm with you bruddah
He is. All the haters don't realize the trash talk is all for hype.
Jim Morrison This interview alone has made me a fan. I love Khabib, I was rooting for him. But if he becomes champion, how often will he fight? The guy is extremely injury prone and has pulled out of more bouts than anyone I can think of. If he could stay healthy, I'd love to see him as the champion. I'll be rooting for Ferguson in the future, solely based on the fact that he would be an active and entertaining champion if he could get past Mcgregor. I can't wait for either him or Khabib to derail the hype train.. although I feel Khabib has the better tools to do so. It's so weird how it stacks up imo.. I think Ferguson has a much better chance of beating Khabib than Mcgregor, but Khabib has a better chance of beating Mcgregor than Ferguson.
Respect for Tony! Class act 👍🏻👍🏻
Tony has always been a class act and the past year has shown how Tony is a great ambassador for the Sport of MMA
Luke pulled out in nov, DC pulled out in dec, Cain pulled out late dec, nd now Khabib...Cmon Javier
Kenny McCormick I'm the biggest AKA fan and this is just shameful
Kenny McCormick If DC pull out again he should be stripped, his last title defense was October 2015
Kenny McCormick yeah this is kind of a bad reputation to AKAs gym even tho they made 3 ufc champions an they where hopefully trying to get a 4 until this happened...
they are def not on top of the weight cutting over there...they should have been focused on weight cutting way back
specially when you got 30pounds to lose
Give Tony the interim belt.
Pull out = Forfeit.
Eita M exactly he won at the scales
And then refused to fight Johnson = No interm belt
Eita M didnt pull out... doctors didnt clear him for the fight
13Elementguy before a fight, fighters need to be cleared by doctors to be sure they dont have health issues. khabib was dehydrated to a critical point so doctor said no fighting for you
how many times do I have to say this, khabib did not pull out
Respect. First thing he did was worry about khabib. Behind that tough exterior, there's a true professional.
It's a "classy act " for a reason..Tony was sweating bullets pre fight and you know it !...i could see the sense of relief on his face...all uppity n stuff.
@@drugbustin you can call tony a lot of things, but scared is not one of them
@@drugbustin Khabib is 3/5 for pullouts with Tony. Sorry chud
@@SphericaI If this fight happened, I have no doubts that khabib would smesh Ferguson. Even prime Ferguson. But still, I don't think its a coincidence that this fight was cancelled 5 times, a lot of people ducked khabib during his career.
people need too see things like Ferguson does. perfect view of the situation. oh but this comment section will still be spammed with McGregor fanboys
Lazy Sloths ☝ Wow you called it lol
Conor would've accepted any other fight without hesitation.
Pravin Jadhav Because he gets payed loads more than everyone else did u not listen to what Ferguson said they were gonna cut he's pay to fight
Lazy Sloths ...They should learn a thing or two from Tony as in Dont kick a man while hes down
casual mcgregor fans are cancer to MMA.
When Tony is being real, he's a guy you could get behind
How can you not like this guy, so respectful for such a killer
Notice how this video is 2:09 long
Illuminati confirmed
Seanflan11 Aye this fight will be rescheduled as a main event
Seanflan11 Aye I thought as much......
Sea Level Cain you're better than that bro!
Seanflan11 Aye.ufc snakes
+Almighty Khan The 4th time's the charm!
give that man his money
New found respect for Tony Furguson. What a nice guy. Would have been too easy to throw the book at Khabib but instead said he understands and struggled with weight too.
Tony's a good dude 👍
AKA should be fined for not being able to keep their fighters healthy/ready for fight day! Unbelievable..
Alex Mendoza they cannot produce healthy fighters. You're delusional.
Anthony Yeah it's pretty ridiculous when they pull out like this. Injuries and illnesses can sometimes be prevented and it's pretty sad to go through all this time leading up to it and then they just injured or something.
Crazy man. I thought AKA was one of the best teams and it is. Javier Mendez seems like a good coach. But it's ridiculous seeing this happen over and over. I think DC just pulled out not long ago as well. Love Khabib and hopefully this fight gets booked again soon
and Luke and Cain...everyone pulls out
It's just bad luck, man. You know these fighters want to fight real bad. Especially fighters like Cain, DC, Khabib & Rockhold. To them, there's no getting out of a fight, so I think they're the most devestated when they have to pull out.
Where you at, Embedded?!?
Lol there was an embedded when Jones got pulled out of 200, pretty sure there will be another one, have patience pal.
you that robot?
Jordan Schlansky what are your duties as producer?
Well he has various responsibilities.
we needs more videos of you with conan.
Why khalabeeb why
I cannot understand that either. Failing to cut weight is a no excuse situation. Love Khabib, but that is so unprofessional. WHY???
doobtubes haha
Valerya Starkshield
like you know anything about making weight.
doobtubes I bet non of you would be able to put in half the work khabib put in so don't be negative, khabib is sick you should be wishing him luck and to get well soon I'm js
Jon Doe exactly what I been saying since it was confirmed brother. 👍
Tony and khabib both are legends
class act Tony , handled it like a professional , pushed all the hype aside as he understands how hard the cut is and wished kahbib and his family prayers to heal up. Perfect example of the switch. when it's hype time they hype when it's done or in this scenario powerless over it the respect comes out. this is what the sports all about
respect to Tony for the words he said
What a guy ! I never used to like Tony but I've definitely changed my mind seeing how this guy presents him self and how dedicated & focused he is .. feel bad on him for this
I respect Ferguson for how he handled the situation.
This guy is a Class Act ! The UFC better give him his fight purse !
OK respect restored to Ferguson. He won a new fan.
Pure. Respect. I. Have. For. This. Man.
I'm have to say after watching this interview I've become a bigger Tony Ferguson fan. Class act.
The fact that khabib retired and never fought this dude can be considered a W to ferguson. They should fight still.
tony actually respects khabib so much...that's why he always wanted to fight him at any cost
once again Conor predicts the future.....knew Khabib was gonna pull out
Daniel Canngieter He ain't fight too frequent for my liking. ...He's a consistent pull-out merchant." Without me this whole... Yall know the rest.
when did he say that? I wanna see it hahah
Roronoa Zoro Look at his interviews. Might be a press conference where they're speaking of khabib to him and he says that. Man only the goat predicts these tings
Roronoa Zoro says it during the post fight presser of his last fight 👍🏻
Said it in the press conference after UFC 205.
Classy response by a class act
NOW THE FIGHT WILL NEVER HAPPEN
this guy has class.. I like men who respect their fellow men.
"He ain't fight too frequent for my liking. For me to commit to something like that, I need to see solid proof that people are gonna show up and he's a consistent pull-out merchant."
Wow i expected him to trash talk him for "cowarding" away but he was real chill i like this guy more and more
So much respect for that man. True champ in the making
an't really find the words to express this fully but I have nothing but respect and admiration for you Tony, they way you conducted yourself following Khabib's weight problems perfectly illustrate how much of a champion you are belt or no belt. As an mma fan I hope you and Khabib do get it on in the future, both animals in your own ways and both deserving of the very best in life going forward.
i like this version of Tony better then the trash talking one lol
I'm khabib fan but respect for you tony
👏 classy response. I love the respect he gave even after the back and forth smack talk
So much respect for tony 100% dealing with the situation like a true champion
Mad respect to Ferguson.
"McGregor" would've said i don't give a Fook who it is I'll KO everyone inside 1 round The real Champ👊
The Champ is Here!!! A real champ that NEVER defended a single belt in his life.
I Tink, Derefore I Am real fighters run from nate diaz and duck frankie edgar i guess
Darryl Wolfe
He keeps going up making History their's no reason for him to go backwards who's really at the door knocking? perfect example of this mess
ClayMation he trains smart these guys who pull out train too hard they have no chill
you cant knock mcgregor making his weight cut every time must have a great nutritionist with all the money hes got
"Making history" okay, he can make history for most title defenses, he can make history as a undefeated lightweight champion and clearing the division out, but no, of course not, he'll just be another champ with no title defenses and be a pathetic excuse of a champion. A real champion defends his belt multiple times sucessfully, he's 2-1 in his last 3 fights, while Tony is 9-0 in his last NINE fights and khabib has eight while being in the UFC and if you count before that 24 wins in his last 24, your "champ" lost to a pathetic excuse of a fighter who's lost half of his fights and is known for being the lesser man of two brothers.
Khabib ... Khabib....- we all have been waiting for this fight for so long and believe you wanted this more than anyone - this break our heart as same as yours. Get well soon and manage your weight better next time. Take care.
Wow, class act from Tony. Much Respect for this man the way he handled it.
Smart move Tony. Be a gentleman, you'll get your payday soon enough. Respect.
Put the fight on #210
Shahzad Ahmad I watch every fight for almost free. I get a group of friends and go to Buffalo Wild Wings and buy a 10$ meal and watch the ppv
We love you Tony. I knew you had what it takes to be a champion the moment i saw you on the 1st episode of TUF.
i'm a khabib fan but i might be a tony fan aswell :D
you can tell they are both pure hearthed and have respect for other fighters as an individual
NOW: the only way Khabib fighting for the title in the future is when Conor retires because Conor will NEVER give him a shot. Anyway I need to stay a way from MMA until Conor returns. Khabib vs Tony cancellation put me into depression.
Don't worry watch Keith Thurman vs Danny Garcia this weekend
Should be good fight
This is only gonna make the build so much bigger in the long haul folks.
Keeo in mind. Conor next fight in a boxing ring. Alot can happen inbetween. I think they reschedule it cause of the buzz it had
that put you into a depression? lol Well I hope you didn't watch Wonderboy vs Tyrone tonight then. It was not only the most boring title fight in UFC history but by far the biggest robbery as well.
Hugo Stiglitz Hi I'm his friend and I would like to tell you that Wonderboy vs Tyron fight put him six feet under. RIP Chktkar T
if you like Tony or not you have to feel for the guy
you have to respect him for how he's taken missing out on this big fight! never really like him but after this interview I'm a fan... class act
What a class act! Tony has earned respect through this.
They need a light welterweight division (165) and to push welterweight to 175 because there's too many big lightweights but arent big enough for welterweight because most welterweights cut from 190+
Hugh Mungusballz agree 100%
agreed should also add super middleweight (195)... never gonna happen tho.
Hugh Mungusballz then conor will hunt for 165 and become 3 weight champion..😂😂😂
because khabib cant make weight ufc will make new division? 24-0 in lightweight he does weight every time. khabib destroyed it
At least this one has audio lol
He takes it like a champ. Mad respect.
I'm a huge Khabib fan but tony you got my respect for showing concern on your oponent's health, salute Tony. You are the man.
The REAL Tony Ferguson.
Khabib is lucky. This is his first lose if this happen
Tony is a true fighter man. Hes a true person you can trust with anything.
Gained a tremendous amount of respect for Tony in how he handled this situation!
At least he said something unlike Dana white!
I'm glad Khabib is not my dad because then I would have never been born. My only true Father is McLord McTwoBelts AKA the one who never lets us down.
Cherry Pauper LOL ! So true ! even when Conor looks like he is dehydrated to the door of death itself. ...he still shows up !
Cherry Pauper His Title defence at featherweight was incredible
Cherry Pauper hahaha Conor is your daddy bwah!
khabib AKA one of the many AKA fighters who are ruining their popularity and legacy but not even making it to the octagon
Cherry Pauper your a joke bro mchater
Thx Tony for this words!
hats off to tony for being a true champ and wishing well for khabib. hard luck for khabib. hope this fight is back soon...
You blew your chance Khabib. It could be a year or even two before he gets a chance to fight for the title.
As long as Conor is champion he'll never get a shot, and for good reason. This guy's a clown.
Quetzalcoatl WME have a big loan to pay off, there is no way they will not reschedule this fight. The bank for the fight is high and there are not many more other fights they can create for the same or higher bank. Diaz vs McGregor? DC vs Jones is about the only other fights that they can drum up. UFC also want to go to Russia so they need Khabib to win so they can set up that fight in Russia for that $$$. UFC is business first, sport second.
0:09 tony the type of guy who say "let me take you back to yesterday" to show his past.
Why did i laugh on this🤦
much respect to Tony, make it happen ufc 210 the main event
Kudos to you Tony! Much Respect. 👊🏼
Conor would've taken the Johnson fight.
No, Tony declined it
Except he just said he didn't...
kal El Yeah it sounded like he would've taken it if they weren't going to cut his pay
kal El As much as I hate Conor I can respect that he shows up for his fights and takes pretty much every fight put in front of him even if his opponent pulls out.
he cant even defend his title
I feel bad for this guy man
He was very kind and respectful. Say what you will about Tony but he showed true class and respect here.
That is what I like to see RESPECT
wait, they arent even going to pay him his show money? i thought if your opponent missed weight but you didnt you got paid. This blows for tony. Khabib wont ever fight mcgregor because he's never going to be able to live down the fact that he pulls out of so many fights, how do you not make sure that your weightcut goes smoothly for the biggest fight of your career, jesus khabib.....
lol and khabib about to smesh mcnuggets in 3 days
Alfonso Gonzalez hahahahahah look now khabib is the champion
Put the card on Live TV!!!
Either inside or outside the Octagon....this guy is all class ... no need for trash talk.... Respect
Class act: much respect for for tony, hope they get to scramble soon. Best wishes for khabib...
Next time Conor says anything, I'm gonna be listening intently #aldosgonerunning #snakeinthegrass #pulloutmerchant
What did i tell yall? 24-1
Except he's 24-0...
You mean 24-0
just because he pulled doesn't mean he gets a loss put on his record, plus he's pulled out of fights before so he'd be at a greater loss if that was how it worked, you have to have fought to actually get a win or loss or draw added to your record
kabib fan boys haha dude has zero respect for the game.
24-0 for the whole life. Only 8-0 in UFC. Tony had 9 wins in a row and more. Even more outside the UFC
RESPECT! thats how a champion should be!
Your profile pic and name is legit hahahaha.
HUGE RESPECT!!! u gained a new fan Tony. #class
Nobody ever will be cheering for Khabib again he lost probably 60 % of his new fans and lost all the hype this guy is over
Adrian Elmaz CHAMPION
Would you say the same about him now?
Tony " Mystic El Cucuy" Ferguson I don't just predict that you will pullout of the fight ...I predict the reason why {Mystic Mac vs Mystic El Cucuy}
Respect from Ireland - that is class👊🇮🇪
what a classy guy
this kinda annoying that khabib that he got sick
yes i know :P remember khabib did meet mike tyson few days ago... maybe thats a reason why he was fatigued or whatever if they sparred or something lol jk
Khabib got scared
john snow freedom no rulers Yeah he's 24-0, but most of those guys were bums, he's never faced real competition before the UFC. The only top 10 guys he faced were RDA (when RDA wasn't in his prime) and Johnson. He's never faced a top 5 guy
+AletheAce Tony was gonna murk that boy and Khabib knew it. Especially after weight cut, he couldn't even show face! On doctors "recommendation".
that would make you similar to bully ... or a jock or someone who think their big shot ... everyone is diffrent but maybe my comment wasnt the smartest to write i might edit it
technically ,Khabib forfeited .. so tony doesn't have to fight other opponent,
he has been automatically became interim light weight champion..
UFC .. give him is pay and crown him champion dudes..
give him his belt....
Well no, Khabib was in hospital. It's not like he had a common cold...
I knew it was too good to be true to have a fight like Khabib v Tony in this lifetime...
Ive always liked this guy
Everybody praising Khabib, but he did pull out multiple times, think about the fans paying for their hero not showing up
Honestly I think K was looking for a way out, he doesn't want it with Tony.. I'm not saying he's scared but I am saying he doesn't want it
William Teada UFC doctors recommended khabib not to fight. if he was faking it the doctors' would have known and so the UfC
William Teada he's scared it's okay you won't say it but I will
Pepe the Frog yea I don't think he's super excited about getting in the cage with Tony
William Teada I think that means he's scared cuz
Respect
truly this guy was amazing he was fun to watch his interview ohhh well
why didn't ferguson fight though let the show go on McGregor would of fought antbody
Noon Noob cause he would have got less money fighting Michael Johnson where he is actually going to get more money for not fighting as he made weight for the Khabib fight
How have you not heard about antbody? he's p4p number 1 imo and some say he can lift like 20 times his own body weight.
#firemegan
Mad respect for Ferguson right now. Had a harsh weight cut himself and rather than take it out on Khabib he used it to empathise with him instead. That's some amazing honour right there. PAY THIS MAN! 💰
RESPECT with big letters!
Khabib must've wrestled with Fatboy Double cheeseburger way too much.
That would only help his weight cut.
allah not akbar lol
Allah created you and you are dependent on him.
nope
Have some respect dude
Class act of the guy.
i love Tony Ferguson a real MMA fighter much respect.
