We’re going to have a fight on April 18.
UFC president Dana White announced Monday that Tony Ferguson would meet Justin Gaethje for the interim lightweight title, and while he didn’t reveal the location, appears adamant we can expect to see action in the Octagon.
It’s been a confusing time for fighters and fans alike. Check out how some of the other UFC stars received the news.
