Tony Ferguson ridiculed a fan on Twitter over his remark on Michael Chandler. Dana White has filled UFC with not just fighters, but with characters who can sell themselves. They then produce some hilarious comeback moments and social media exchanges online. The UFC has some of the best MMA trash talkers and they are not shy of showing it off.

‘El Cucuy’ was involved in a similar incident recently. He took on to Twitter and replied hilariously to a fan who called him ‘beaten’ and ‘aged’.

It was in response to the fan throwing shade on Michael ‘Iron’ Chandler. The fan pointed out the mediocre UFC record of Chandler, saying that he does not deserve to fight against Conor ‘The Notorious’ McGregor because every time he has fought someone decent and on top of the division, they have put him away. And fighting Ferguson was like facing someone beat up and old.

However, Ferguson was quick to hit back.

Against Tony Ferguson, Michael Chandler looked deadly and up to speed, knocking him out with a vicious head kick. Chandler has got what it takes to stay in the promotion and be entertaining, but perhaps he wants more, being a former champion of Bellator, his previous promotion.

Yet there were fighters in the promotion who used to entertain and create hype even before the ‘Mystic Mac’ joined the promotion. Sonnen was one of the first fighters to shut their opponent’s mouth. He used to have a response for everything thrown at him.
