The UFC 249 tournament in Jacksonville will be remembered by fans for a long time. Not only because it was the first pay-per-view tournament without spectators, and the wrestlers’ trainers gathered near the cage in masks, but also for the exceptional performances.
In the main fight of the night, Justin Gaethje gave a fantastic performance and in the fifth round he forced the referee to stop his duel with Tony Ferguson, who has so far won up to 12 wins in a row.
As soon as the fight was over, Gaethje briefly rejoiced in the victory and went to Ferguson to thank him for the fight and see if he was alright. Still a little drunk, Ferguson was unhappy that the judge was not allowing the fight to continue and pushed Gaethje aside.
“Being an ass leads nowhere,” said Gaethje.

These words reassured T. Ferguson, who, speaking in the middle of the cage after the fight, showed respect for J. Gaethje and then hugged his opponent.

“I’m not lying, Justin is a really cool bitch boy. He was the only one who signed up to join this line. However, I had an extremely long training camp and had been preparing for Chabib, not a striker, since November. Sometimes bad things happen, you don’t do anything. It would have been better knocked out than now, when the judge had to stop the fight. Thanks to Justin for accepting this duel, “said Ferguson.
