Tony Ferguson is an American professional mixed martial artist and professional boxer. Active since 2008, he became known through The Ultimate Fighter 13 and later spent years in the UFC, where he held the interim lightweight title and became one of the sport’s most discussed figures. He was signed to the UFC after winning The Ultimate Fighter 13 in 2011 and left the promotion in 2024. The summary of his career also notes that he holds the UFC record for the longest losing streak and is regarded as one of the best fighters never to have won an undisputed title.

“I don't want to be a cookie-cutter-poster-boy-bubble-gum-chewing fighter.”

“I'm a fight finisher.”

“If I were to fight Khabib, guaran-damn-tee you I would throw him from his feet to his back and beat him like in sambo like a five-point move in wrestling. That's my background.”

“I want to be a multi-division champ.”

“I never make the same mistake twice. If you catch me slipping one time, good for you, but it ain't gonna happen again.”

“I thought Al Iaquinta did a great job at UFC 223, but Khabib is going to say he won the Super Bowl after he faced the third string? No way, dude. So many people hold him up on a high horse, but I see his flaws. I wasn't impressed with anything he did.”

“Once I lose focus that's when I'm going to go tumbling down the hill.”

“I'm not someone to joke around with.”

“When I first started fighting, it wasn't the easiest thing. I didn't have all the money in the world. I was eating Subway once in a while, some packets of oatmeal here and there. It wasn't that bad, but it's because I was fortunate and had good people there to support me.”

“I think I would pose a big threat at 145.”

“Any of my previous fights before the UFC and 'the Ultimate Fighter' were all main events and co-main events.”

“I'm gonna be always the main event.”

“I always said the 155-pound belt's been in so many grubby hands, man.”

“You can't really be one-dimensional in this fight game. If you are, you're going to get knocked out or you're going to get finished. Either that, or you're just going to take a lot of damage and you're just not going to be able to last very long.”

“I'm a fan pleaser.”

“I can take a hit, I know I can hit back twice as hard.”

“I finished Edson Barboza in a d'arce choke. What else do you want? He's very hard to take down. Spinning heel kicks, spinning kicks. I took some of his most powerful shots and I just kept coming forward. I'm the Boogeyman out there.”

“I don't want to be around people that bring me down.”

“I'm a champion and I fight like a champion with or without that belt.”

“We've never had somebody to secure the legacy for the 155-pound division.”
