CHICAGO – Tony Ferguson apparently has something of an issue with Khabib Nurmagomedov ’s pursuit of a fight with retired former UFC champion Georges St-Pierre . Nurmagomedov (27-0 MMA, 11-0 UFC) has shown interest in fighting St-Pierre (26-2 MMA, 20-2 UFC) for quite some time. “GSP” wanted the same, and actually walked away from the sport when he came to terms with the fact the UFC wasn’t willing to book the contest. The current UFC lightweight titleholder Nurmagomedov hasn’t given up, though, because he reportedly just signed a new UFC contract that includes specific language about a showdown with the French-Canadian.
