Now Abdelaziz believes Beneil Dariush will make him retire after this fight at UFC 262. In his latest interview with The Schmo, Abdelaziz says, “Listen, Beneil doesn’t talk much but I’ll talk a little bit for him,”

“I think Tony Ferguson, he signed his death certificate. I think it’s going to be the last fight of his career. I think Beneil is going to retire him. I think Beneil is better everywhere. His striking is better. His wrestling is better. His grappling is better and I think Tony made a mistake signing to fight Beneil Dariush.”
