Did Colby deserve to get sniped by Jorge?

if you keep kickin a man when he's down,dont be surprised if you get checked.

Colby isnt really built to cash the checks his mouth is writing. So he is just gonna get pinged w boomerangs and bashed around here and there if he dont rein it in a little bit.
 
Masvidal bragged about how he had the best sucker punch out there and I guess he proved it. Although, no I don't think he should have sucker punched him. Colby's words should have made him review his responsibilities as a father and start taking care of his kids.

Pretty much the heart of what I'm getting at

I love Colby. Very regional and passionate about him

And yet often philosophizing the things around him. I swear he's an amazing fucking athlete, fighter and believe it or not person. And I know he's the opposite of humble in his approach. So always speculating if his attacks are warranted, oncoming or detrimental. For now I think he will be OK with a title shot

Then again I don't know how Jorge hit him

They had a UFC fight. I don't get a sucker punch after the fight because you couldn't stop wrestling. Imagine Hunt sucker punching Brock because he never gave him a chance. Masvidal should've taken the L. I'm not a Colby fan either.

Because unlike Lesnar vs Hunt this fight was extremely personal ,had been brewing for a long time and etiquette and logic was thrown out the window.

If I understand it correctly:
-Jorge let Colby sleep on his couch
-Jorge vouched for Colby to his own striking coach which vastly improved Colby’s standup. Then Colby refused* to compensate said* coach
-Colby betrays their friendship (again) and literally speaks about Jorge’s family in a public forum.

Jorge is exactly the type of guy that I’d expect to retaliate in the streets; and be ready to accept the consequences of his actions.
Right or wrong, he taught Colby that there can be consequences for stepping over the line; and that he can’t count on others to operate under the same moral “code” that be does.
Keep in mind that Jorge getting locked up wouldn’t likely benefit Colby in any meaningful way.

So I always thought this was a bit cowardly on Jorge's part. Sucker punching someone for trash talk. Mostly because they had a chance to fight in a regulated environment and Colby handily won

Then i saw things from a separate factor. If Colby's words were potent enough did they deem a counter attack? Whether stealth or not. I've heard that Jorge lives by a code and he carries an answer. However it has seemed to sideline Colby for a year. I don't understand his injury or if the attack was warranted. Hell I don't even know what Colby said

Not even fighter bashing I just want to know what you think on a psychological and legal level

No.

Jorge had 25 minutes to attack him and failed. That sneak attack was by a cowardly failure.

The incident in which Jorge Masvidal sucker-punched Colby Covington at a restaurant in Miami was undeniably cowardly and wrong, reflecting poorly on both fighters and the sport of mixed martial arts (MMA) as a whole. While MMA is known for its intense rivalries and fierce competition, there are established rules and codes of conduct that fighters are expected to adhere to, both inside and outside the octagon. Masvidal's actions in this situation not only breached these principles but also tarnished the image of MMA athletes as professionals.

Sucker-punching an opponent outside of a sanctioned fight is not only a cowardly act but also a dangerous one. MMA fighters are trained professionals who understand the potential consequences of their actions, and they are expected to resolve their differences in a controlled and regulated environment. Resorting to physical violence in a public place not only puts the safety of others at risk but also displays a lack of discipline and self-control.

Moreover, such actions send a negative message to the fans, especially young and impressionable ones who look up to these fighters as role models. MMA athletes should strive to set an example of sportsmanship and respect for their fellow competitors, even if they have personal conflicts. Masvidal's sucker punch only serves to perpetuate a culture of aggression and hostility, rather than promoting the values of sportsmanship and respect that are essential to the growth and integrity of the sport.

In conclusion, Jorge Masvidal's sucker punch on Colby Covington was a regrettable and wrong action that undermined the principles of professionalism, discipline, and sportsmanship that should be upheld by MMA athletes. Such behavior not only jeopardizes the reputation of the individuals involved but also casts a shadow on the entire sport. MMA fighters should strive to settle their differences in a respectful and controlled manner within the confines of the octagon, adhering to the rules and values that make this sport an honorable and competitive endeavor.

relax man. This has happened countless times in boxing and mma over the years.
 
It demonstrated that Masvidal is a garbage person, but I already knew that.

That said, it is funny when bad things like that (and Usman splintering his jaw) happen to Covington. A normal human might consider the damage his mouth is causing him, but I'm not sure Colby's capable of such humility and reflection
 
It was a sucker ass move and Jorge is damn near 40 and he proved Colby right by not actually being a good example for his children...grow the F up... and I like Jorge.

The funniest part was how Colby was completely set up by the Nelk boys. He excitedly tweeted his location and thought he made friends, only to get suckered at the restaurant and clowned on a podcast. <45>

Now we finally know why Dana paid the Nelk boys.
Dana was angry at Colby for disturbing him in the casino.
Jorge merely was tool of the JBG
 
Colby never said something bad about Mas's kid.

He just called Mas a shit dad.

Mas was not trying to protect his family just his bruised ego.

There's something really pathetic to it because Mas got physical when he had 25 minutes to hurt Colby.
 
Shit's wack but they live in fantasy land so like whatever bro
 
Masvidal had him locked in a cage with him for 25 minutes and didn’t do shit

Do something then if he bothers you. Mas was just bitter he lost the fight.
 
No. That’s ridiculous. Jorge had 25 minutes to kick his ass in the octagon, couldn’t do it, and surprise jumped him with other people outside of a restaurant. He can stick his code up his ass.
