Tony Ferguson to Defend Misfits Boxing Title Against Kenzo Biyong

Tony Ferguson is set to defend his Misfits Boxing MF middleweight title against Kenzo Biyong on September 26 at the James L. Knight Center in Miami, as announced by the promotion.

Ferguson, who is 42 years old, secured the interim title in 2025 with a third-round TKO victory over Salt Papi and was later promoted to full champion after defeating Warren Spencer. He aims to achieve his third consecutive win in this upcoming match. Biyong, a former professional soccer player, will face a significant challenge in terms of experience against the seasoned fighter.

Ferguson has recently discussed the injuries and mental challenges he faced during a difficult period in his UFC career, particularly during the pandemic. He expressed that his preparation was not optimal during that time, which affected his performance.
