I feel like having the same management company as Conor has done Tony more harm than good.
Always get the vibe maybe their holding him back/giving him bad advice to keep him away from title shots to make it easier for Conor to stay in the mix.

Kinda like Dillian Whyte and AJ/Matchroom.

Tony is not stupid. He didn't fight MJ when the UFC didn't give him enough money, he knows his worth. I don't think he would stay at that management agency if he was getting fucked.
Tony fought for the interim, got it and was aiming to fight for the title with Khabib until that cable took him out. Tony is repped by Audie Attar and a fat samoan dude from Paradigm, they eat and go on vacations together, seems like they do like each other a lot.

Tony is not stupid
man is 24-3 with 11 wins in a row and he has a 5k win bonus

Guaranteeing his pay instead of relying on a win bonus is stupid?

what seems to have happened:
they offered him a finish bonus - he doesn't say for how much, but given the way the story is told i am led to believe it was for a much larger figure maybe to the tune of 50k or more, somewhat commensurate with other top fighters
he turned it down for some reason - maybe he wanted it all guaranteed, or maybe he wanted in the form of a win bonus
they were like 'lol ok' - presumably because they have very little respect for this dude wearing shades inside their boardroom
tony walks out of the meeting with a 5k win bonus

I love how off track he got with every question in this interview, oh and Khabib Tony cocksuckahs

i'm no closer to understanding it after his explanation
20
$150k to show
$5k to win
9
the question he was asked was "why" not "what"
he rambled on about something else and didn't answer the question

I dont understand a fucking thing he says, but I love every bit of this man. Keep smashing the LWs of the world my man.

I dont watch many press conferences, but I would watch every one for a Tony vs Conor fight.

I am a big Ferguson fan, but having a conversation with him has to be like trying to read a newspaper after it has been put into a blender. It is doubly funny because he seems to be aware of how hard it is to follow him.

Does it deal with getting fucked over?
11
This is what happens when a used car salesman interviews at Google.

My highlight of this was him asking if anyone knows the exact amount of surgeries he's had, only for him to not know the exact amount. Weirdest motherfucker on the roster but damn if he's not entertaining.

His contract is more ninja than he is.

I love Tony... 150,000 to show 5000 to win is the most Tony Ferguson thing ever
Will you be the dork with a ponytail?
If you got a problem with Tony, then you have a problem with me. And I suggest you let that one marinate.
Fuck yeah!
