Tony Ferguson wins by knockout at Misfits Boxing event.

Tony Ferguson made a compelling comeback at Misfits Boxing's event in Miami, securing another impressive victory in the co-headliner. 'El Cucuy' faced off against Mahmoud Sebie for his MFB Middleweight title defense. Ferguson's opponent managed to knock him down in the opening round, but Ferguson quickly recovered and continued the bout.

The fight took an unexpected turn when Sebie stood still, allowing Ferguson to deliver three unanswered punches that dropped him. Early in the second round, Sebie seemed to regain his composure and began throwing powerful punches, momentarily wobbling Ferguson. However, Ferguson remained composed and avoided further damage. In a dramatic finish, Sebie backed himself into the corner, enabling Ferguson to unleash a barrage of unanswered strikes.

The referee intervened after a brief exchange, ending the fight at 0:42 of the second round. Ferguson's win extends his unbeaten streak to three in a row with Misfits Boxing, reigniting speculation about his career resurgence after a string of eight consecutive losses in the UFC.
