“First I was offered a boxing game against KSI.” Tony Ferguson declared Ariel Helwani today. “We were in difficult negotiations and I am ready to take the fight. I am ready to get started. Then they wanted me to go to a press conference next week, and I was already below. Then I wondered how, okay, let me talk to my team … we thought, okay, let us end mixed martial arts and later find out the boxing. “

He continued: “So it wasn't as if we had said no, or we didn't say yes. But we focused more on MMA. Then KSI went obviously and, I think, found another opponent. Until then there was that [GFL] Draft. Then it went down all of these … but we are tired of losing. It is a season from here. “
