This was confirmed by UFC President Dana White on Yahoo!
In a light duel in Florida last weekend, the 36-year-old American struggled with his compatriot Gaethje, 5, who replaced Chabib Nurom, the reigning champion of Russia, who had given up appearing at UFC 249 due to to a coronavirus pandemic.
T. Ferguson, who had been preparing for half a year to fight in a game with painful actions, which often beat his opponents, was unable to resist an opponent of a completely different style.
The favorite, who received more than a hundred blows to the head, had his cheek pierced, causing the octagon to waste his blood. In the fifth round, the referee stopped the fight, including Gaethje’s victory in a technical knockout.

“It just came to our attention then. Weight loss is nothing more than just Justin being a great bitch. He was the only one who agreed to switch Chabib and fight on the scheduled day,” said Ferguson.
The losing opponent was sympathetic to Ch. Nurmagomedov, who will now have to defend the champion’s belt, will have to face Mr. Gaethje.
“It just came to our attention then. Over your head, Tony. I hope everything is fine for you and your family. When your child grows up, he will be proud of you,” ch. Nurmagomedov, whose confrontation with Ferguson was revoked for the fifth time last month for various reasons.
By the past weekend, T. Ferguson had won 12 fights in a row. In total, he has 25 wins (12 knockouts) and 4 failures.
In turn, Gaethje’s scores: 22 wins (19 knockouts) and 2 losses.
