This could be looked at as Ferguson's (25-7) last stand in the UFC. The 38-year-old has lost four straight fights. They have all been against the top tier of the lightweight division including the most recent lightweight champion Charles Oliveira, but Ferguson hasn't been competitive in any of the fights. He got beat up horrible for nearly five rounds against Justin Gaethje and most recently suffered a scary knockout at the hands of Michael Chandler.
