Khabib Nurmagomedov declared that he is still "waiting for Tony Ferguson to wake up" after the fighter was viciously knocked out last month.
Nurmagomedov and Ferguson have been arch-rivals for years, but through various freak occurrences were never able to settle their feud in the octagon. And when Ferguson began a losing streak right around the time that the Russian was retiring, it appeared that MMA fans would have to admit that the pair may never get to compete against one another.
But the pair have been entertaining the possibility of coaching against each other in the next season of The Ultimate Fighter, despite the fact that Nurmagomedov has vowed never to fight again. Generally, the reality show is known for promoting a major bout between the season's two coaches, but on rare occasions the two will not square off after filming is wrapped.
