The most Tony Ferguson interview ever.

[@randazza]

Tony Ferguson is absolutely the type of guy to sit like that in a chair

[@Dynamo_066]

Tony: "I had to fire some coaches" RIP that one coach that told him to do that takedown on Nate

[@almightyfonics]

He’s still there

[@Bairom06]

LMAO he said that after every loss since gathje

[@saynotofeminism]

Tony the type of guy to hunt a bear with only blades and shades

[@black-cross]

1:54 I actually thought he was going to pull out a gun. I almost pooped my jocks

[@Tarantinh0]

It’s getting harder and harder to watch him fighting or talking

[@KlinkTheTree]

Tony the type of guy to fire all his coaches and win the title at age 90

[@GrimmTutelage]

Break out the new "Tony the type a guy" jokes. Dropped a whole dlc in this one 😂

[@khunter8757]

Seriously....Dana please cut him a nice check and retire him before he takes anymore damage. We are all witnessing the mental demise of a legend and no one helps him. I couldn't imagine what his family goes thru.

[@ynicderano6129]

Shut up

[@Angelitoo02]

Nah man, hes always been like this. believe it or not, I have a friend that thinks and talks just like this man.

[@danhabshi371]

Dude is absolutely insane!!!!!! Completely delusional

[@kamthenihilist.]

When did it become okay to just call people insane with no reasoning to back it up? Y'all are the ones who seem a little out there in my opinion. Creating all this concern when there's no reason for it seems crazier than anything that was said in this video

This is one of the best videos on KZbin. I’ve watched it three times. Tony, please give us more interviews.

[@allpraisewebb1142]

I have no clue what he's even talking about honestly 😂😂

[@purpleaki1277]

Tony doesn't know either

[@placeslimitees61]

Tony “Ima be real with you” Ferguson

[@iankyoko]

He's always been like this. Why are people so concerned? If he sounds besides himself it could be because his mannerisms don't have the same ring or the same bravado after a string of losses. His mannerisms belong to someone riding a high horse rather than someone crawling. For all those who've followed his career - once a Tony-fan always a Tony-fan !! I thought he fought great against Nate. He was ahead up until he got submitted. One of the hardest things for someone with his style is how to incorporate defense - he almost has zero defense. The Nate fight showed he'd been working on his defense. After his Gaethje fight I think he realised he needed to develop better defense.

[@NotSeriousPeople]

Nah he's delusional, since the oliveira fight he keeps saying he went back to his roots and his wrestling mentality, new coach blablabla

[@Bairom06]

@@NotSeriousPeople LMAO yeah that's true as a tony fan

[@bobchimpson7703]

[@kamthenihilist.]

​@@NotSeriousPeopledelusional how? Because you seem pretty sure of that

[@khunter8757]

Nah....I've been following him since Tuf. I've watched numerous videos, interviews, training sessions, etc of him over the years. He's been in my top 5 for years. He's always been eccentric and in his own little world but anyone paying attention knew that at some point this dude was gonna crack. Look at his history?!? He's been treated for mental illness thru the years. You add more damage to this dude and the chances of him running off into the sunset after a beautiful retirement is null and void. This isn't just Tony being Tony anymore.

[@KlinkTheTree]

I’m going to miss this man but please retire after this fight ufc needs to pay this man to not fight anymore because tony is the type of guy to die in the cage

[@josephsasso2905]

Tony Ferguson vs Brown Bear.. UFC 294

WTF is he talking about, tracking a bear???? Tony is totally gone mentally. No way he should be fighting. but I'm so glad he is 😂😂😂.

[@PyroCham]

This is nothing new. Tony has always been a bit looney lol

[@joeykloz4833]

tony “ima be real” ferguson. i do not think he wins this one either, but if he does, legendary. if not, he needs to retire asap and focus on his mental health

[@al1410]

Mental health? That's just how he is idiot.

[@TylerP9999]

take a drink every time he says “imma be real with you”

[@pskrrt]

people get quiet in a room when you walk in cuz everyone was talking shit bout you lol

[@the_intolerance]

he's said the same shit the last 5-6 press conferences in a row

[@mald316]

Lmao right. "I'm not used to losing" "I'm taking it seriously now"

[@siwkolis]

“I’m feeling good” “Khabib is scared of me” “I’m barely in my prime”

[@Buddyguy1988]

It’s always been clear he is mentally Ill. Y’all don’t remember when he thought the flood was coming took his wife and kids out of the house . His own wife was terrified of him. Everyone needs to care about this dude and tell him to hang it up. He’s one of the craziest fighters ever. We don’t need anything more from him. God bless tony

[@khunter8757]

It's crazy how all these fans think he's perfectly fine or just being Tony. Blows my mind that someone can watch this last interview and walk away with that sentiment.

He's the most delusional fighter on the roster. He's been done now since 2020 and he knows it. He just can't and won't admit it. "I'm in my prime!" What a 🤡. He's going to get really hurt one of these times and it will be too late.

[@khunter8757]

@@zStC1 yep. He's always said crazy shit but he's really bad now. It's not funny anymore.

[@Justice4Skye]

It's bipolar disorder and something he can't control which is clear and was diagnosed years ago but he can't take things like LITHIUM and Seroquel and also be a professional athlete and perform due to what it does to ones body, so hopefully when he retires he gets back on the medication but until then it's mental illness and people should be kind and empathetic towards it because I can assure you one thing, if you had that type of chemical imbalance you'd beg for others to be empathetic and kind as it's internal suffering.
