Former opponent advises Tony Ferguson to think about his future and retire from UFC: “Are you going to be able to still throw the ball with your kids?”
Thomson’s Ferguson thoughts
“There’s no one there for him to fight,” Thomson said. “And the UFC’s gonna look and go ‘We’re paying you a decent amount of money,’ now obviously it’s probably not like get-rich money, but it’s still a decent amount of money, and he’s gonna have to make a decision: ‘Is the amount of damage that I’m taking in these fights…’”
“Don’t look at it about yourself, that’s the problem,” Thomson said. “He’s gotta look at it in terms of where are you gonna be at after this? Are you you going to be able to still throw the ball with your kids? Are you going to still be able to try to wrestle and teach your kids how to wrestle?”
