The beef between top lightweights Tony Ferguson and Kevin Lee is still just heating up as “El Cucuy” uploaded a social media post on Tuesday of a direct message that Lee sent to him recently.
Lee’s direct message to Ferguson said, “No bullshit, no cameras, no fans. If you wanna get it in we can frfr, you walk up on me again like that we got to.” Ferguson said in the caption of his post, “@motownphenom I’m In Your Resident Town #LasVegas…. I Walk Right Up To You In T-Mobile Arena And Say “You Wanna Act Tough Behind A Camera Huh… We Can Run This Shit. I’m Here Right Now MF’er There’s No Cameras Here… No Crowd. We Can Do This Right Now…” & You Do Absolutely NOTHING… Except Say “Its 8am & Its Too Early” & Look For Someone To Step In. I Told You “My Fight Time Has No Time” And You Wait Until Now To DM Me A Line?… Fake As F*ck #F*ckinPussy #TUFBehindTheCamera #JustForShow #CanIGetARealJournalistHere I’ll Show You What A #DDT Is #TonyFergusonMMA #SNAPDOWNCITY”
Lee then took to social media on Wednesday posting a photo of himself and tagging Ferguson. Lee said in the caption of his post, “@tonyfergusonxt posting my DM brought fans and media into it stupid. You walked up on me like you wanna fight with other fighters, PR, and security around us. I played you down cuz I like my money in my pocket. If you really want it, I’ll DM you my address, just me and you nobody to break it up. Otherwise you all talk. Ain’t shit for no cameras this way. You know where to find me.”
Do you think we will see these two settle their differences in the Octagon next? Or does Ferguson have unfinished business with Khabib Nurmagomedov? Let’s get your thoughts in the comment section!
