The Cuban-American MMA superstar Jorge Masvidal has declared in an interview with ‘TMZ Sports’ that would like to face Irishman Conor McGregor “because he’s a bitch”, further suggesting that it would be a street fight since “he will never fight me in the ring”.
As is known, McGregor was the first fighter in history to be a double UFC champion, holding the lightweight and featherweight belt simultaneously.
38 years old, Masvidal retired last April after losing to Gilbert Burns, but apparently he’s hoping for a comeback, even if it means returning to the streets where he began his gladiator career.
“He never mentions my fucking name in a comment,” he said, referring to McGregor, demanding: “Shut up and do due process. Damn bitch!”
In a conversation with Michael Babcock, the descendant of a Cuban father and a Peruvian mother announced that “I’ll have to go back and grab that belt real quick” when they talked about the BMF girdle. “A UFC fight. Not right now, but at some point I think I have to go back.”
‘Gamebred,’ as Masvidal calls himself, was arrested in 2022 on charges of aggravated assault, grievous bodily harm and criminal mischief following an alleged street fight against wrestler Colby Covington outside of Miami’s Papi Steak Restaurant.
In May of this year, his father was also arrestedin his case following a shooting at a Kendall home where a man was wounded and Masvidal Sr. was charged with attempted second-degree murder.
