Advertisement In one of his recent interviews Ferguson said, “That title’s a wet dream. Like that Farmer’s Insurance commercial, ‘You almost got it, keep it going, we are just going to keep dangling it in front of you.’ I do not know what the problem is. I do not know if it is because I am Mexican. I am an American with Mexican parts. Twelve fight win streak, 8 years in the making before women’s sports were even in the UFC. Conor McGregor was on welfare. All these different things and I still did not earn a title shot.” Advertisement “But I am still sitting saying f**k the free world, just like Eminem.”– Tony Ferguson (December 10, 2020)“The most naked I have ever been my whole entire life. I am still here. I am still waiting. I have got the belt in my room. I could go after another belt, but how much greed is that? I have got an Ultimate Fighter trophy. I have got a Fighter’s Only trophy. I have got a UFC belt. I have got medals and I am Lord of the Rings with all my championship rings.” adds ‘El Cucuy’Watch the interview below: Advertisement Advertisement RECENT RELATED ARTICLESKid Cudi Calls Eminem GOAT, Invites Him to His PodcastMay 16, 2026Eminem and 50 Cent Attend Pistons vs. Cavaliers Game 5 in DetroitMay 14, 2026John Waters Names Eminem as the Last Person He Still Wants to MeetMay 13, 2026Mimi Barks Cites Eminem as the Foundation of Her SoundMay 4, 2026Westside Boogie Talks New Album Progress and Playing It for EminemMay 2, 2026RZA Recalls Meeting Eminem: “Lyricists Recognized Him Immediately”May 1, 2026 2020Charles OliveiraEminemTony FergusonUFC 256
