“The UFC is planning tournaments in August in San Francisco and in September in Abu Dhabi. I could have a fight with Ferguson there. If it all ends, ”Nurmagomedov said during a live broadcast on Instagram.

On April 1, Nurmagomedov announced that the title match with Ferguson, which was supposed to be held on April 18 in New York as part of the main event of the UFC 249 tournament, was canceled, because he could not fly away from Russia due to quarantine due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Earlier it was reported that Nurmagomedov responded to critics accusing him of canceling the battle with Ferguson.
