Tony Ferguson believes he will be ready to resume training in a few weeks and wants his cancelled scrap with Khabib Nurmagomedov rescheduled.

Ferguson, who was set to meet Nurmagomedov next weekend in the main event of UFC on FOX 19, posted a message recently on social media indicating his desire to fight on May 29.

UFC officials have yet to decide if they will seek a replacement for Ferguson to keep the unbeaten Nurmagomedov on the upcoming card.

"Waiting on Reply… I know This Dude doesn't want to Lose. I'm only out a few weeks while my lungs clear up. Don't use this as a BS excuse Khabib, you will still get your show money within a few of weeks from the original date!" #TeamFerguson #TeamElCucuy #TonyFergusonMMA #SnapDownCity #OGElCucuy #UFCTampa #khabibnurmagomedov
