Former UFC interim lightweight champion Tony Ferguson has sought the counsel of the inspirational David Goggins as he looks to end his losing skid.
Ferguson will face Paddy Pimblett in his Octagon return next month at UFC 296. The lightweight bout is featured on one of the biggest cards of the year, with a welterweight headliner between Leon Edwards and Colby Covington.
Ferguson has opted to switch between fight camps over his past few bouts. As he prepares for his next fight, he’s seeking the help of Goggins, one of the best motivators in the world.
