MMA: UFC 274 – Weigh Ins
(New York, NY) — UFC fighter Tony Ferguson is facing DUI charges after a crash in Hollywood.
Police say the veteran fighter slammed into four parked cars with his pickup truck early Sunday morning. One man was hospitalized after the crash but it’s unclear which vehicle he was in.
Video of the scene surfaced early Sunday of Ferguson near a pickup truck that had flipped over and collided with multiple parked cars. TMZ reports the 39-year-old didn’t want to cooperate with police and refused to take a field sobriety test before his arrest.
Ferguson’s management declined to comment on the matter when reached by ESPN.
Ferguson (25-8) is a former lightweight interim champion. He most recently suffered a decision loss to Nate Diaz in September.
