Tony Ferguson apparently stumbled upon a matchup that he took quite a lot of interest in. While the match does not include his presence, anyone would be excited to watch the fight materialize.
As an incarnation of brutal violence, ‘El Cucuy‘ looks forward to dynamic duels. And as he surfed his social media, he came across Jon Jones’ series of tweets. While he did not really express curiosity towards Jones’ call-outs to Stipe Miocic, one statement managed to capture Ferguson’s eye.

After targeting Stipe Miocic on Twitter, Jones also brought a fight with Brock Lesnar into the conversation. The two have a long history, including the time when Jon Jones called out Lesnar after UFC 214. Even though Lesnar did not respond to the recent call-out, Ferguson was quick to chime in.

Ferguson seems ready for the fight to come to life. But what makes Lesnar’s coming back to the UFC a possibility? Recently, ‘The Beast Incarnate’ once again became a free agent. Therefore, speculations regarding a potential return to the UFC and another run at the heavyweight title are not completely dismissible.
Moreover, Brock Lesnar has not tried to hide the fact that a super-fight with ‘Bones‘ might make him sign the UFC contract. In fact, WWE legend Kurt Angle himself told Ariel Helwani that Brock might return for a fight with Jones.
