"This dude says he wants to break my arm," Ferguson said to MMA Mania. "I'm gonna tell you like I told other people. I like to hold my kid, I have a newborn. I broke my arm once, but I knocked that dude down with the same arm. I'll pimp smack that dude if he tries to break my arm. Go for it, dude. You try it, bro. You try to break it you're gonna have problems, I'm going to come at you with everything else, because I got elbows, I got knees, kicks ... I'm gonna hit you with everything I got."

Nurmagomedov recently stated in an interview that he intends on breaking Ferguson’s arm in their co-main event clash.
