MMA H.E.A.T.’s Karyn Bryant caught up with UFC Interim Lightweight Champ Tony Ferguson at the UFC 223 media lunch in Century City, CA, and heard what he had to say about his upcoming fight with Khabib Nurmagomedov. Tony talks about preparing for his opponent after three previous re-schedulings, whether he thinks Champ Conor McGregor will return to the Lightweight division, the impact GSP has had on his career and the possibility of a “money fight” with the former champion. Tony also talks about his unorthodox training methods, the MMA fans who refer to him as “cringe,” what he likes to do in his time off and more.

Definitly on cocaine
11:00
Vc e um fipho da puta de merda dumbo filho de puta de esquina
he dream much he think to win habib naver happen habib will break you he is the king and naver lose to the end
I hate this guy
How do I reach these kiiiids
This guy best ugly ufc fighter. Real… look like gollum.
Tony seems tweaked out
I'm so glad Tony got stripped. All that shit talking and he got injured and couldn't make the fight. Serves him fucking right.
Khabib Nurmagomedov is an extremely humble, intelligent, wise, powerful, beautiful human!TF just needs to absorb some of these qualities and his life will be way better than at present. The knee injury is not TF's problem, however his gum chewing, sun glass wearing, agitated ego is. Drop the self centred, boring dialogue that vomits out your mouth, as in this pain staking interview you've done prior to your knee injury. Less is more. Say little, walk don't talk! Teach your kids how to be develop the Khabib Nurmagomedov qualities and your life and theirs will be a success.
Tony Ferguson took an arrow to the knee.
Tony vs Khabib can cancel anytime, as long as Karyn still here we gucci!!
Did he say that he didn't get into fighting for the awards and belts? Then throw the belt and call it a paperweight??? and THEN said that he will take his TUF trophy to the grave?!?! Jesus man… I think Tony actually went full Cringe…
If you throw a piece of dog shit at Tony's face… he will catch it, eat it, look you in the eyes and say " thanks for throwing your shit at me, now i know that you give a shit about me and its a wrap for you dog… str8up point blank period.. Go and tell your Aunt cuz i'm bout to make you scream uncle….that's heart…"
Not so "Cucuy" after all huh?
He doesn't even understand the word 'cringe'.
Fights off
Showing people his dog? WTF??? This joker will get exposed in his next fight and you will never hear the cringe again.
too many fanboys. how about, may the best man win.
Tony you ain't beating khabib.
Tony you would beat that brat Conor.
this is numba one cringe
Looks like a genetic experiment Shrek crossed with pea head
my money is on Tony
i love tony but cringe has nothing to do with clinch lol
"I'm very witty." – Cringe Fest Ferguson
i want tony and conor to go at in a press conference more than in the octagon
I see Tony came back from housecleaning. 🙂 Man is so UGLY he has to pay his wife to fuck him 🙂
I heard that Joe Rogan's company came out with new line of cattle bells they use Tony's face instead of a chimp now 🙂 And after Khabib destroy him CRINGY, WIERD, SOCIALLY OKWARD, CHEMICALLY IMBALANCED, MISUNDERSTOOD, will kill himself. Tony jealous Reebok wont give him shoes This is my opinion…
"I'm very witty I'm very educated I didn't get my degree" hahaha hahaha
Tony” I don’t what I’m talking about” Ferguson
And guess what. People forget that a pickle is just a pickled cucumber. They don’t know that. They forget. I eat pickles. And I smash cucumbers. I’m a warrior. I don’t care about pickles. I smell pickles with my nose bro. I do. I live. I eat. I fly bro. Use my mind and power. Feed my hunger bro. Pickles and cheese. And if khabib punches my face. It’s because I like it! Ever seen a cheetah fly? I’m Cheetos bro.
Got damn. He’s too much!!
Deep down… He cares! Lmfaoooooo.
Tony is the "Cringiest Cunt"
Hes dog is ugly
This guys insecurities pour from him…
The background music is annoying, it spoils a bit this exclusive ITW with Tony
I think he has a big heart and he dislikes trash talk.
26 0 время хабиба ☝☝☝☝☝
Tony's wisdom …he talks a lot of shit…but he's crafty! #snapdownCity
Cringe master!
Tony is copy McGregors interview style lol stop already!!
Tony only seems "cringe" to people who are too afraid to be themselves in fear of what others think about them.
Hitting speed bag better then Canelo LOL
Talking about delusional…
Man looks like he aged 5 years in few months :@
Good Lord, Ferguson might be the ugliest dude in MMA. Add to that the fact that all of his "shit talk" is clearly rehearsed and still lame there's a clear reason he hasn't been promoted. Dude is gonna get smoked.
dy120481 At least he’s not as ugly as your mother. That’d just be unbearable.
Wow he is nuts
That’s snapjitzu, that’s snapping into it (snapping) with an intuit like the tax place so basically means, I’m a tax man and I’m gonna tax khabib, I’m whitty and I do taxes. Taxes rhymes with axes my elbows are sharp like axes but I spelled axes, AXIS as in axis I’m gonna knock him off his axis.. science I’m a scientist I’m an astronomer basically, next question.
I love Tony, but I think he speaks in riddles that he doesn’t even understand.
Tony is an unbearable individual. I'm not a fanatic for Khabib, but every time Tony talks, it's unsavory, foul, and without base. He shows no humility. Go Khabib.
This guy's cardio is off the chain!!!
From one Mexican to another Tony is goofy- a good fighter but for some reason even tho he is a top level fighter he try’s to hard
Cringe
You can see insecureness in Tonys eyes. Looks like Khabib got under his skin.
Karyn is so fake. Such a fame whore
+Philtastic1 What makes you think that about me? Give me an example…
Karyn Bryant I apologize for being too harsh but in all your interviews it seems like you are overly flirtatious with the fighters (excluding this Tony Ferguson one) but look at your old interviews with rampage or mayhem miller etc.
You don’t need to do that, you’re already an intelligent, articulate woman, no need to be obnoxiously flirty or cutesy coming off attention seeking.
I wish you all the best, god bless.
He's starving….man….i …..man…thats tuff
Dam …im goen for TONY..
BUT IT HURTS TO SEE THIS INTERVIEW.
Millenials need to stop with there new words so dumb
It's Tony Time Bitches
Khabib will kill him if Kevin can mount him imagine what khabib would do it would be different if it was a long time ago but it was recent
el kooky more poised then usual
I don't even think Tony knows what he's saying.
Incoherent replies to very simple questions. Rambles on with some irrelevant ill-fitting analogies. ‘Broken down Barbosa’ … ‘Broken down Michael Johnson’ … now I am a fan of Tony and Khabib but Tony’s excuses are horrible…he is a top 5 fighter nothing more…champions don’t make excuses and they can certainly give clear concise answers to simple questions
Ferguson via ankle pic
Tony looks like handsome squidward in the thumbnail. I like the guy but he looks weird clean shaved
Karyn Bryant bring us the 360 camera please
I like Conor, BUT, Tony beats him.
Tony Ferguson is a bonafide superstar now, and will zoom into the MMA stratosphere with his victory over Khabib….wait and see…..
25-1….watch and see….
El CUCUY will beat Khabib……Khabib knows one way to win but Tony knows many….this is going to be fun.
Faggy Ferguson is gonna get smashed by Khabitch, The Russian princess
Some people are saying that Ferguson smashed Karyn bryant
This Tabsy mother fucker obtaining from his rear end ..
RIP Ferguson
Tony is a bad mf
Smart dude, speaking truth, gotta love Tony!
I hope he does beat khabib
where's fabricio werdum when you need him lol
This guy is Gringe AF.
I have a boner
Tony is such an interesting person. I can't wait for this fight its going to be one for the ages.
I can see the phycho in tony
lunatic cringe!!!
Its funny becuase in reality tony fought a broke down barboza and khabib fought the best barboza im not khabib fan these are facts.
Cringey…..
Feel like tony does a lot of acid
Good luck Tony u gonna need it…
Low keys Karen feeling the cringe
He should care. He's alright when he's a lot more calm. But FUCK HES CRINGE!!!!
LOL this is hilarious he's already smashed mentally, soon his face will follow
Super cringy when he talks. And it’s not on purpose like he says lol
Lunatic cringe , i know your out there?
Knuckles is named after Robert Whittaker?
Who is the real champ of the UFC?
Tony messed up on the hair – should have kept it longer on the sides, and grew a beard for this fight – He looks way too clean cut –
Cockiness will bite you in the ass….A conceited fool.
Tony is the Jon Jones to Khabib (DC). They are both more sophisticated on the ground then their LHW counterparts they both have had multiple pullouts reschedule of their fight. Tony is creative Khabib is the best Wrestler. I believe Tony beats Khabib.
PS: Khabib may or may not cry who knows but I see Tony beating him. The Eagle is still the Favorite and rightfully so.
I love Tony even if he is a little weird he has a point
He'll ankle pick him in the third.
Teacher Ferguson?
How is he "cringe" or "Cringiest"? Only white ppl say that goofy funky ass shit
true fans are waiting for this fight like we all wait for the last day of the year and party my respect and support to tony and the courage he has to fight a fucking monster like khabib
Tony"El intellectuale" Ferguson
Tony looks like he's contrabanding something.
Grown ass men !!!
Stop using the word "cringe"
You sound like 13 year old girl.
"like OMG that was like so cringe"
1973PennyLane there's an age restriction on what ppl can say??

Got to respect his work ethic 100%✌️
The Interim Champ
26-0
I like Tony!! I hope he pulls it off I really do!!
Billy Jean …
Go Tony I know you can fuck up Khabib really good
That must be why hes blocking people off social media lmao. Such an insecure man.

Davide Pannone khabib will still lose tho
Davide Pannone. UDS. MONOS. AZTECAS. VAN. MORIR. HIJOS. DE. PUTAS. MONOS. NEGROS. BURROS. MIERDA. JODATE. MERJICO. PAIS. MIERDA.
What a load of incoherent nonsense.
Just when it appeared as though Ferguson was about to conduct an entire interview without mentioning his claim to fame, the "Ultimate Fighter", he mentioned it.
mad as a box of frogs, but a warrior none the less
love dis guy
Game Genie is a cheat system… U just attached it to your game and insert it… For example if u are playing Mario Bros. You will have infinite lives!! I'm with you Tony wooooooooo!!
unique and I hope he gives khabib a tough fight
Honestly…he’s such a weird guy..I know a lot of weird people..But this Guy is kinda next level
Ferguson spirit like: fire, Nurmagomedov like: Water.
Yes; I think: "Be like Water my friend!"
Tony by Danaher leglock.
Its his time!
Tony Ferguson can't speak proper Spanish. Every time he tries to act "Mexican" he makes a fool out of himself by using wrong grammar/words. But the Latin American community seems to be a huge market where he wants to make a name for himself (just like Cain Velázquez did). Tony "Cringy-Spanish-Speaking" Ferguson
Cain and tony look more mexican than brian ortega but ortega speaks way better spanish and actually visits mexico.cain and tony are fake mexicans
Tony and Cain are second generation Americans. Their grandparents spoke Spanish but their parents spoke English, and they didn't get the benefit of growing up on the border. That's the reality of all immigrants. We slowly lose our parents' language. It happens to everyone, and it will happen to you and me and our kids the same way.
Athanasios Kyriakidis bet ur white guy
RRR just cuz you don't visit mexico don't make you a "fake" Mexican what stupid logic…
So every black guy that don't go visit africa is a fake african American?
So every Asian that don't go to visit China or japan are fake?? Bro STFU
Athanasios Kyriakidis. JODATE. LATIN. AMERICAN. FERGUSSON. AND. CAIN. VELASQUEZ. PERRO . SUCK. MI. BALL. MERJICO. PERRO. JODATE. MERJICO. OJALÀ. DONALD. TRUMP. MATE. TODO. LOS. MONOS. BURROS. NEGROS. MIERDA.
Speaking like a champion
Kevin “very witty & quick with it” Ferguson
Dude is awkward af
Khabib is going re arrange Tony face
His going to come out as Frankenstein
It's fucking funny how he tries to be like Connor and it's just so hard to watch
Chewing and smacking gum and he says gazelle and he tries to show "confidence" try to slick but just crash and fail and thinks he can deal with press but reallly talk like a 20 year old
Tony act your fucking age
Mexican see you as a fucking gringo
And Americans just make fun of they way you talk
Just fight
You can tell he acts himself when he talks about fighting
But after that he tries to be Connor
Like telling khabib he is in his head
And saying his really whitty but he' thinks he is
And says he a genius at mental warfare? But in reality kahbib is legitly laughing at his apponet
Khabib hates conor and you can tell
But khabib
Respects tony and laughs at him like tony is his little brother
Khabib doesn't give one shit
And tony your Spanish SUCKS!!!
Khabib can talk better Spanish
What?????
This is as far as you go, Tony.
Khabib steamrolls, wins title, moving on…
weird motherfucker
I liked Tony before seeing this video.
Not appreciating the approach to interviewing.
A poor mans Conor Mcgregor
He aint cringe, i just think this is his personality
He’s defo Barking Mad , but can fight for fun
If any of you idiots still say you dont understand Tony then seriously you guys have a problem, need to be checked! Dont judge Tony speaking while he is training, bunch of idiots. Kahbib and his fans go learn english and get your health checked!
Who goes around bragging how witty and intelligent they are? Khabib needs to humble this fuck.
Tony 'strawberry letter' Ferguson
Win or Lose, He is a SMART DUDE and Anyone who doesn't see it is stupid or Biased. MENTAL GAME A+ so No excuses if he lose to khabib
He is lunartic cringe khabib absoulutley destroy him at media call
Tony will shock the haters April 7. Win or lose, Tony is a champion.
Tony you have one week before you lose your health enjoy it
You gotta be faster, Karen, you did this interview, as usual, but another channel got 10 times the wievs since they beat you to it by 4 hours..
You gotta like him even if you curling up on the coach and wanna turn it of, its originals that makes the world a richer place.. Sooo happy for this fight..
is this Dan Quinn's son?
Everyone is vastly different. I can see his intelligence and his way on psychedelics
That's the worst cauliflowers seen on a head already not quite right.
"So what i did was, i ankle picked him" – Tony "Ankle Picker" Ferguson
Are You Booing Me? Bet ur white
TGRgrimreaper209 and you are black?
M2J2X nope lol wrong again faggot
TGRgrimreaper209 again? I only made 1 comment you bitch. Why so offended? Pussy.

tony sounds like his on drugs
I think Tony honestly believes he is the coolest MOTHERFUCKER on the planet, and that everyone else is cringy.
Then again it doesn't really matter,
since this is no competition of who is the better public speaker.
It's about who is the best at kicking ass.
Tony is one of those people who thinks that he’s intelligent and tries really hard to make other people think that he’s intelligent when in fact he’s not intelligent at all
Man I like his fighting style a lot! But his logic is just horrible!!! I think he actually has brain damage….
Rahmen Khorsand-nia ur mom n dad are retarded maybe they should educated you & the majority of white people make that opinion i bet ur white too i hope Tony wins
patatinis and yes you are white stop lying to make a point i bet all you do is play xbox loser
TGRgrimreaper209 actually I play ps4 and again I’m not white retard and if you want to bet put your money where your mouth is!
Joker talk in here
You're on steroids
Great Interview. Thanks! Go Tony!
I was honestly tripping after yesterday's Conf call where tony was flipping out. But this interview helped me understand him – very inspiring guy – thinks fast and deep. Love it. Don't leave it to the judges Tony.
EPSTomcat11 he’s a weirdo and so are you
Rahmen Khorsand-nia Sure, if that makes you feel better about yourself lol
Tony won’t have a chance to leave it to the judges haha he getting smashed in 3
Great job Karyn . If you weren't there this video would have been five minutes long . Thanx for actually having questions for him.
This nigga has an ear growing out of his ear…
I hope Tony wins vs khabib but mcmoney is better than Tony make no mistake
Regardless of who wins this fight, It will be a crazy fight.
Viewing yeah if you like leg humping. Because khabib boring ass will be humping Tony’s leg the whole night
It won’t be a crazy fight, only Tony has a stand up game and it will mostly be on the ground.
tOnE, I cNt rElE tL wN Ur acTng, sO I cNt rEd Ur mInd, bt Il sA 1 thing(U mA or mA not LreD nO it), IF U dOnt think kaBbz preT dRn much Ur EQL, thN EvN thO Ur not intimid8ted by him.. Ur still underSim8ng him.. tred lIk the grShoper young grShoper, this is a 50/50 odds fIt, it cN gO Ithr wA☹️
Tony is deluded if he thinks his interim belt is the "real belt" He refused to fight Michael Johnson, Lando Vannata when Khabib pulled out.
He said his arm was broken in round 2 against Johnson but he kept using it to the end of the match
LIAR!
Tony is also just stupid by saying Khabib beat a broken down Micheal Johnson and a broken down Barbossa.
Both M Johnson and Barboza gave credit to Khabib
No Place To Hide go fuck yoself stupid cunt
This man is dressed like he was running late to the media event. I mean he's the UFC lightweight interim champ. And he shows up wearing a dri-fit under a suit jacket, with a fucked up hair cut. I respect Tony as a fighter and Ima fan but dammit look like your podium. I understand his "shit talking" selling the fight stunt. But this is a huge moment in his career, dress like the professional you are. Thoughts anyone?
Travone Norman Being a "Excellent Employee" doesn't mean shit when it comes to mma. He was spoon fed the 155 title and that's a fact. Just because Dana said "He is a amazing fighter and deserves it" That was Dana promoting his new cash Cow. This is mixed martial arts, When you move to a new division you start at the bottom of that division. Conor got spoon fed because there were real title contenders waiting for a title shot. He held the 145 belt hostage for a year and now the 155 belt hostage for nearly 700 days. Conor fans need to grow the fuck up. Conor doesn't belong in mma anymore, He stalled way too long and i would not pay to watch any of his fights. The "Interim" title is the most retarded thing ever in the UFC and it's Conor's fault they created it because he stalled the title challengers for too long. Conor is not good for mma.
Edit: My point is Conor is not good for mma, Conor had major size advantage over almost everyone he fought in the 145 division. and he got Post-USADA opponents who are off the juice and much weaker like Aldo for example. Go watch some fights before Conor arrived in the UFC, They were much more explosive faster/more agile, That's because TRT and other steroids were not being tested for back then. Just like Aldo fell off Renan Barao did the same, could not compete after steroids are banned. many of his fights were 10 days notice for his opponents as well while he had a full camp like the Mendes fight where Conor trained 4 months and Mendes 11 days.
Viewing so what about Daniel I mean him and stipe is creating a super fight. What about tj and Dj? The fact is fans wanna see the fight the makes the most sense. It's un natural putting a feather weight undisputed champ at the end of the line at LW when he made it to the pinnacle of another division. It doesn't happen in boxing either. When you have the best at two different weight classes it makes sense at the time. The other fact is your making it seem like they don't get offered a contract from their employer. You must of forgot him excepting 7 rewards in the short period of time he been here (not including ppv numbers) he was the most active fighter between 2014-2016. When to a entirely different type of training for the Floyd fight. But it's not your business to determine if he should gets perks for the job he have done in this company.
My initial stance was Tony class and dress. That's apart of professionalism. That's apart of being on that podium he has. It's lacks in this sport.
They're going in there to get punched in the face not to a fucking modeling contest fuck being professional!
Nick Diaz I understand you have zero class but I was stating a opinion I'm sure many people would agree on. But that's going you completely obvious statement.
Tony wears glasses because he cant see himself winning the fight.
it does make sense if you imagine time in terms of space
Jonathan Forster Then he should've lost every fight if that made any sense, Which it doesn't.
Nick Kizich lmao
Tony jealous Reebok wont give him shoes This is my opinion…
I heard that Joe Rogan's company came out with new line of cattle bells they use Tony's face instead of a chimp now 🙂
Hey Dana what time is it.
