Not only did Kevin Lee consider his fight with Tony Ferguson for the interim lightweight title to be the real title bout. Khabib Nurmagomedov believes that the now interim champion is the true champion of the division.
“I think the UFC should do McGregor vs. Diaz 3 and I fight Tony Ferguson. I think he’s the real champion. That’s the fight fans want. For me the most important thing is not money. But my family, my friends, that’s the most important thing. I keep training every day to fight again. People think I like being injured. I agree with the fans, I have to fight. And what I want is to fight with Tony Ferguson. But I do not think he’s going to make the decision unless UFC tells him he has to. Tony Ferguson deserves the title. It has a streak of ten wins. He’s the real champion. “
