Tony Ferguson was the victim of a huge front-kick knockout at UFC 274. Michael Chandler found an opening early on in the second round and ‘El Cucuy' was out cold the second it landed.

Tony Ferguson is not someone that gets knocked out so the moment was especially shocking. UFC president Dana White informed the media that he was transported to the hospital right away.

‘El Cucuy' took to Twitter to issue a statement and let everyone know that he was doing well. He even congratulated Michael Chandler on the great fight and knockout at UFC 274 over the weekend.

“Congratulations to @MikeChandlerMMA On his victory at UFC👣274. Had lots of fun in there, you fans are Fuckin’ wild I love this shit! Feels good to be back & hungry again. We were just getting started. Best Of Luck In Your Next Fight- Champ # ForTheLoveOfTheGame -CSO- 🇺🇸🏆🇲🇽”

Many people thought Tony Ferguson looked great at UFC 274 and all three of the judges actually had him winning the first round. Michael Chandler was able to find an opening and use it to his advantage in quick fashion.

UFC 274 now makes it four losses in a row for Tony Ferguson and it's currently unclear what happens to him going forward. Dana White did say before the fight that neither Ferguson nor Michael Chandler was at risk of getting cut if they lost.

Michael Chandler has plenty of fun options ahead of him and that could potentially include Conor McGregor next. The UFC will have to decide what they want to do next with both men.
