The next season of “The Ultimate Fighter” is around the corner, but the coaches have yet to be officially named. According to the former UFC interim lightweight champion Tony Ferguson , he was not only contacted about a coaching role in the upcoming 31st season of the reality competition series expected to film soon, but given a choice of who he would be coaching against. Since Ferguson’s first choice of retired UFC Hall of Famer Khabib Nurmagomedov has completely stepped away from the sport, his next choice is the former two-division champion, Conor McGregor . Ferguson’s statement on social media comes just a day after McGregor said he was offered to coach the show, to which he said, “I like it.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by @TonyFergusonxt (@tonyfergusonxt) “I’ve Been Asked To Coach On TUF Against Ol’e Fathead, or Anyone Of My Choosing If That Cake-Eatin’ Sum’Bish’ Wouldn’t Show *mack* What A Vagina I’m Always Ready Anytime Anywhere,..
