Tony Ferguson has slammed the decision to have Conor McGregor ranked among the top five fighters in the lightweight division.Hitting out at the Dubliner, 'El Cucuy' told Submission Radio: "He just deserves the chance to fight. F*** him fighting for the title, he needs to fight, he needs to fight somebody like I don’t know, top-15. Get his a** back on there.
"He don’t belong in the top-five, get the f*** out of here. F*** you, pay me, dude. Nothing personal but you are still a b****." The latest rankings saw Khabib Nurmagomedov rise to the top of the pound-for-pound list - replacing Jon Jones in the No 1 spot following Saturday's submission of Justin Gaethje, which saw the Russian announce his retirement.
Nurmagomedov reacted on social media, saying: "It was work of my life, I never got anything easy, and nothing was given to me because I'm nice guy. "Hard work, hope for Allah and patience, this three ingredient helps me to get successful, and of course, control and advises from my Father, who invested in me a lot of time and work."He tweeted: "Yes! Double 1 on the pound for pound list! Awesome! #ChampChamp"
