Ferguson’s future is far from ruined though. Imber said the fighter has already returned to the gym, and that if talks with EliteXC deem so, Ferguson could go back on the open market where promotions like Affliction, Strikeforce and even the UFC might want to get their hands on him.
“Dana doesn’t want us anyway, so there’s that one,” Imber said with a laugh. “Who knows? I guess we can deal with that when it happens. I know Kimbo has wanted to go to Japan and fight. Maybe one day we can make that happen.”
Opponent and promotion are not the primary focus stateside or abroad, said Imber, though a rematch with Petruzelli would go a long way in clearing Oct. 4’s tainted air.
“That’s something we’d like to do if an organization wants to,” he said. “We’d like to do that before we fought somebody else, but the main thing is Kimbo does want to keep fighting and fight more. That was one of his biggest concerns. He wants to fight sooner then later, as soon as he can.”
Promoters, this star might be for hire.
