Trainer Khabib Nurmagomedova Javier Mendes assessed the chances of winning two participants in the upcoming MMA fight: Irish Conor McGregor and American Tony Ferguson.
According to the expert, McGregor has an advantage, and he is a dangerous rival.
“Tony is progressing, but Conor has always been dangerous,” Mendes said.
He noted that if Ferguson would miss the Irish strikes, then this battle could end for him very poorly.
Mendes stressed that McGregor is still at a high level, and Nurmagomedov’s battle against him was difficult, writes The Mac Life.
It was previously reported that after the cancellation of the battle between Nurmagomedov and Ferguson, American Justin Gage will become Tony’s new rival.
Reshuffles in the UFC 249 matches grid occurred due to the coronavirus pandemic. First, the championship lost the venue (due to the ban on public events). However, the organizers stubbornly continue to try to find a new location.
Then the competition lost the participant of the title fight Khabib Nurmagomedov. The current lightweight champion cannot get into a duel due to the closure of Russian borders. The athlete assured that he is in great shape, continues active training and is ready to fly to the tournament if the organizers find an affordable venue.
