Conor McGregor and Tony Ferguson are two of the biggest stars in the UFC. Both men have the drawing power and fans always tune in to watch them fight.

They are two of the best fighters the sport of MMA has seen, and it is also a dream matchup for the fans. Despite fighting in the same division, they have never crossed paths inside the octagon. However, it is obvious that they don’t like each other. They keep taking digs at each other on social media, and McGregor is the latest one to take a shot at him.

El Cucuy‘ tweeted a GIF on Twitter and with that, he wrote, Just got off the phone with my Agent… He was just letting me know that I’m STILL Thee Fuckin’ Best Of All Time. Thanks Brotha- Champ. CSO. @vaynersports x CSO @ufc Shit. Werrrrrk Related *fwah-nah-nahhhh.*”

However, ‘The Notorious‘ just could not let that slide and commented on the tweet. He wrote, “You with a new agent again, kid?”

This is not the first time McGregor has taken a shot at Ferguson regarding his management team. In a tweet sent sometime back after a verbal spat between the two, the Irishman destroyed and trolled the former interim UFC lightweight champion. He claimed that Ferguson was duped by a sports agency into signing a contract with them.

Both men just don’t like each other. Everyone wants them to settle their differences inside the octagon. However, it is unlikely this fight is going to happen anytime soon.

UFC is eyeing Tony Ferguson vs. Michael Chandler

According to UFC president Dana White, the promotion is planning a huge fight in the lightweight division. In an interview with Laura Sanko, White said that the company is looking to book Tony Ferguson vs. Michael Chandler.

Both men are fan favorites and absolute warriors. They give it their all inside the octagon and a fight between them is definitely going to be huge. White, in the interview, said, “We’re looking at him and Chandler. There you go. Don’t lie and say it’s done and then managers are going to start calling and crying.”
