Still, it has finally been made official and the fight for the 155-pound class is set to happen next year and will be one of the much-anticipated fights.
The sews for the Ferguson signing the deal was confirmed by sports media sources on Friday as a member of Ferguson’s management group named Ballengee Group made the initial report of the deal.
The 18th April pay-per-view event, which still does not have the UFC event number, is speculated to take place at the Barclays Center located in Brooklyn, New York.
This expected fight is going to be the 5th time that the pair is going to try and make this fight happen as the fight has been postponed for the last 4 times.

Should both the fighters make the appearance for the Nurmagomedov VS Ferguson showdown, they will each be coming to the octagon with a winning streak of 12 fights each.
