Tony Ferguson is a terrifying proposition and there's a reason many see him as 'The Boogeyman' of the UFC.

Over the years, we've seen him evolve from The Ultimate Fighter proposition into a well-rounded killer in the cage and both his record and training back up that progress.

Boasting a black belt in Jiu-Jitsu, a Collegiate Wrestling National Championship, not to mention being well-versed in boxing and Muay Thai, highlights just how well-equipped Ferguson is to dole out his own brand of vicious brutality in the Octagon.

Ferguson has demonstrated this varied offence throughout his UFC career and has won fights by out-grappling, submitting (primarily choking), knocking out or grinding out impressive decisions against some of the best that the company have had to offer.

When the notion of dominant Lightweight Champion Khabib Nurmagomedov not having enough to keep Ferguson down is being seriously discussed, you know that your looking at a truly special fighter.

Can Ferguson put this highly proficient and varied skill-set to good use come UFC 249 and knock off 'The Eagle' in one of the most anticipated match-ups in recent memory? If his record and toolkit is anything to go by, we wouldn't be surprised.
