āGamebredā has been making the media rounds pounding the table for bouts with McGregor and Leon Edwards. Masvidal has claimed he will be returning to the UFC and wants to show the world heās still a viable welterweight.
The former BMF champion admits that the McGregor fight may not happen, but that wonāt stop him from trying.
Jorge Masvidal Thinks Conor McGregor Is Afraid of Him
During an interview with MMAJunkie.comās Danny Segura, Jorge Masvidal said that Conor McGregor hasnāt name-dropped him because he knows a UFC fight wouldnāt be in his favor.
āIād like for it to be Conor (McGregor) because I heard he also wants to fight on that same date,ā Masvidal told MMA Junkie in Spanish. āHeās never mentioned my name because he knows Iāll rip his head off. However, if him and the UFC make that mistake, Iāll take his head off in Miami in April. But I donāt know if he wants it. He knows Iāll break him and make him look bad. I wonāt take him down. Iāll strike with him and take him out of this orbit. Heās never mentioned my name, and itās for a reason. ā¦
āTheyāre saying he might want to do it, but Iām chilling. If he wants to do it, great, Iāll kill him. If not, Leon Edwards. He and I have history, and itās time to settle it. Heās not booked, and neither am I. Letās go, sign the contract, and Iāll break your face.ā
Some believe Masvidal returning to the UFC could be a tough sell given he initially retired from MMA competition on a four-fight skid and is coming off a loss to Nate Diaz in a boxing match. āGamebredā clearly feels he has plenty left in the tank and wants to prove the naysayers wrong.
