It was the first time in his professional fighting career that someone had knockout out Ferguson.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In his recent fights, Ferguson spoke about changing his approach to the fight game. The former interim champion stated that he filtered out a lot of distractions and stuck to what his coaches had planned for him instead of listening to his intuitions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A former opponent in a recent interview shared his thoughts on Ferguson\u2019s new approach to fighting and what he thought of the same. He said, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;I actually think Tony has the right idea right now. He&#8217;s talking about working with the team, having people who can push him, having a head coach where he&#8217;s not the head coach, where he doesn&#8217;t wake up and be like &#8216;I feel like doing this.\u201d<\/span><\/i><br \/>\n<iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Gkyhx_wI3bA\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dariush continued, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;Man, just because you feel something, isn&#8217;t always the right thing to do. Sometimes your coaches know better. Honestly, 90% of the time when I wake up in the morning, I feel like not training because I&#8217;m beat up and I&#8217;m old. But that&#8217;s not, that&#8217;s not how it works. So it&#8217;s important to have coaches who expect things from you. And you don&#8217;t want to fail that expectation.&#8221;<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:-<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/yebscore.com\/news\/i-want-to-fight-for-a-title-nick-diaz-wants-to-skip-all-the-mess-and-face-kamaru-usman-for-the-ufc-welterweight-belt\/\">\u2018I Want to Fight for a Title\u2019- Nick Diaz Wants to \u2018Skip all the Mess\u2019 and Face Kamaru Usman for the UFC Welterweight Belt<\/a><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Tony Ferguson vs Nate Diaz the fight to make?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In his previous three fights, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sherdog.com\/fighter\/Tony-Ferguson-31239\">Ferguson<\/a> did not look like himself at all, it was almost as if he was forced to step into the octagon and did not really want to be there.
