It’s just what happens. It’s in business. He really understands it’s business. Poirier can’t twist Dana White arms and make him do things. Of course, he would love to be against Tony, but it’s all good. He has just got to fight and win, and everything will settle.

If Ferguson got defeated by Gaethje at UFC 249, it would be the greatest tragedy in UFC history. He said that he won't feel bad that UFC didn't select him, that's what fighting is all about, Miracles happen, it's unprecedented and unpredictable.
