But Ferguson might’ve gone too far to insult the undefeated champion this time. Also, The American fighter has assigned weird nicknames for popular UFC champions on his social media. “Khabieber” is the one he chose for Nurmagomedov. And “McNugget” for Conor McGregor.

Ferguson has turned into a notorious jester on his Twitter and Instagram accounts. And he probably wants to fight Nurmagomedov after they failed to meet in the Octagon throughout their careers. This rivalry is far from over…!
