"Honestly, when I go to the press conference I think I want to be nice. You know I don’t want to go crazy. You know? But, when he talk about street fight, I go a little bit… A little bit crazy, yes. "Because this guy never fight in street. What are you talking about? Who? You know, I have a lot of fight in street. This guy never fight. Because in America, you cannot fight in street. But I grew up in Dagestan, everyday I fight in the street. "You talk about street fight? Because people don’t understand. Maybe people think I am like him from America. But I am not from America.

Ferguson will duly take note. All going well, the pair will face off at the Barclays Center (sic) on Saturday, April 18.
