Nurmagomedov on Ferguson: when cage closes, I’m going to do my job

UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov admits that he doesn't quite 'understand' his upcoming opponent Tony Ferguson, but says that it will be business as usual when the cage door slams shut in April.

"I don’t have nothing personal with him, you know? Tony is great fighter. Honestly, I don’t like him personally," Khabib said, explaining he doesn’t understand Ferguson's mind.

"I don’t need this. I’m going to focus on the fight. When the cage closes, I’m going to do my job like always," RT Sport cited Nurmagomedov as saying.

UFC 249: Khabib vs. Ferguson is scheduled to take place April 18, 2020 in Brooklyn, New York.
