Tony Ferguson Makes Weight For Canceled UFC 249 Card

Former UFC Interim Lightweight Champion Tony Ferguson and former WSOF Lightweight Champion Justin Gaethje were supposed to meet tomorrow night in the main event of UFC 249, but the event was canceled after UFC President Dana White was asked to stand down by both Disney and ESPN.

However, while the card was canceled, it didn’t stop Ferguson from making the championship weight limit of 155 pounds.
