Predicting it now: Ferg will break the UFC record for most consecutive losses

[Lionheart7167]

Not sure who currently holds the record. Is it BJ?

Regardless, Tony is marketable, draws eyes, has publicly stated he has no intention of giving up (If anything he delusionally thinks he hasn't reached his prime yet) and will be featured on UFC main event and prelim cards for a long time to come.
Unless they toss him softballs (which they don't usually do for aging veterans) he's going to continue to fight tough ass dudes, even with his noticeably sharp decline.

The next few years will look ugly for Tony.

If he wins Saturday, I'll gladly eat my words...we'll see.

i hope youre wrong...

 

[Wreckless]

He's probably 1 or 2 fights (max) away from getting cut.

If he loses this weekend he either gets cut or if he's lucky, gets one last chance to win his next fight.

 

[IloveTHIS]

I seriously doubt the UFC doesnt cut him on his next bad loss(which will all likelihood be against Green)

 

[Redando]

He will be cut after this fight. They gave him the worst possible opponent.
It’s not the loss that will make the UFC cut him. His performance will be terrible.
He is fighting a fighter who is million times faster than him. Tony Ferguson won’t even touch Bobby Green. Bobby Green will land over and over. tony will even look worse.

BJ Penn has 7 losses in a row. Ferguson needs 2 more losses to tie and 3 more to pass BJ. BJ was a former champ and potential GOAT, also took years off between fights which is why I think UFC let it go for so long. Tony is doing it all quickly in a row, I doubt the UFC lets him keep losing 3 more times.

 

[Fengxian]

We should be proud. It's an honor to see athletes breaking past records.

 

[GearSolidMetal]

He's probably 1 or 2 fights (max) away from getting cut.

Depends on how much Dana is paying Tony per fight & how much Dana loves seeing Tony getting his ass whupped.

Is BJ the UFC record holder for most consecutive losses?

 

[Davidjacksonjones]

Thats insane
From a 12 fight win streak to having close the the most consecutive losses

 

[Wreckless]

After his first 2 losses to Gaethje and Oliveira I think he should have been given a bigger downgrade in opponent but instead they used him as a stepping stone for 2 other top guys (Dariush & Chandler).

I can't think of someone who's lost more in a row in the UFC, but I'm not someone with tools to sort and find out if anyone passed BJ. Just going off memory no.

 

[Rektkid]

Green isn't a big hitter so this might be a fun back-and-forth with one of them winning a narrow decision. Of course, Tony will look at it as confirmation that he's back and will be calling out Khabib.

ugh you probably right

 

[FlyingDeathKick]

Green is a significant step down so hopefully he can get the win.

 

[M4R5]

Tony the type of guy to follow a twelve fight win streak with a twelve fight losing streak

 

[Legio_X]

If you don't count the draw in the middle of the streak sam alvey had a fat 8 fight losing streak. Winless in 9 fights has to be the record.

Sam Alvey went 9 straight fights without a win, but he does have one draw in that streak so it really just depends how you say it.

I think BJ has the record for consecutive losses (7) in the UFC.

Hector Lombard had a 7-fight winless UFC streak, though. A no-contest, followed by 6 losses.

 

[otis604]

He's not the leader but he still deserves a mention
