Khabib's dad: I think we'll roll Ferguson
The father and coach of UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov shared his expectations for his son's fight against Tony Ferguson.

Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov noted that Khabib has never missed so many blows, he is more powerful than his future opponent, he is a more attacking and dominant fighter.
“I think we will roll up Ferguson. But it cannot be said that Tony has passed over the years. In this case, he would have lost, but this did not happen, ”said Nurmagomedov Sr.
