UFC Fighter Tony Ferguson Arrested on DUI Charge After Flipping Truck in Late-Night Crash

Police say Tony Ferguson crashed his pickup into two parked cars outside a Hollywood nightclub around 2 a.m.

UFC veteran and former champion Tony Ferguson was arrested early Saturday on suspicion of driving under the influence after crashing his truck in Hollywood, according to police. Ferguson, a 2017 interim UFC lightweight champion, is believed to have been driving a pickup around 2 a.m. when he crashed into two parked cars outside a Hollywood nightclub, turning the truck onto its side. There was at least one passenger traveling with him in the vehicle, but no major injuries were reported, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles Police Department told MMA Junkie. Law enforcement sources told TMZ that the 39-year-old refused a field sobriety test and was “very uncooperative” at the scene. Ferguson, who debuted in 2008, has lost his last five fights, and currently holds a 25-8 record.
