Masvidal avoids question when asked if he would fight Colby

Not surprised. Journeyman Jorge knows that Colby or Usman would expose him (for the 14th L on his record) which is why he’s ducking them both. Instead, he wants an easier fight and a meaningless rematch with Nate.

I knew he was ducking Colby, I KNEW IT!

Masvidal's intimidation act is tiresome, implying Colby was scared to stay at that gym because of him. He's a journeyman who went on a streak late in his career.

Colby would strangle him via RNC.

The question Ariel asked was would you like to fight him before it’s all said and done or you’re just done with him, and he answered he’s done with him immediately. That’s as direct as it gets.

At the end of the day I can understand if Masvidal is fine ending his career chasing easy money fights and ducking real competition, but I wish he'd shut the fuck up already with the tough guy act and desperately trying to justify it like he's not ducking.

do you blame him?

he knows what he is - he’d be a fool to rush to the end of the gravy train if Dana is willing to put a few more winnable fights his way first.

Well he seemed to have been close friends with Colby before, so all the shade he throws probably has weight to it. Doesn't change the fact Colby is a nightmare matchup however.

In other words, he would not fight Colby. I wonder why.

Colby is ranked #2. Masvidal is ranked #3. Colby vs Masvidal makes plenty of sense from a rankings and business standpoint (grudge matches sell) if Jorge ducks Usman.

Masvidal knows he’s just one loss away from going back to being considered a 50/50 fighter. He has to milk this streak for all it’s worth.

This is UFC rankings havent mattered ina decade. Jorge set the table for a big matchup, of course he's gonna wait to cash that in.

Besides Colby just got smacked around and TKO'd by the champ, nobody but colby wants tinsee that rematch so soon, back to the pile imo

Yeah I'm also getting tired of Mas...who does he actually want to fight these days? A smaller guy who can't wrestle obviously.

Doesn’t change the fact that Jorge is ducking Usman and Colby. Colby and Usman both smash him and the journeyman knows it.

 

[Night Slasher]

Colby beat him up for years, of course Jorge is scared
Iz normal

Mas is better standing and on the ground. He’s also got a good chin and good cardio. Colbys got the better takedowns, but that’s about it.

Usman's on a nice winning streak and is the champ, so why would he not want that fight by your logic? Because he wants an easy payday against someone who suits his style.

So what? He's a longtime journeyman living a Cinderella story on the other side of a long career. I don't blame him or give a shit that he wants to pick what's best for him.

Doesn't change the fact that Colby is fresh off a pride obliterating ass beating at the hands of the champ and doesnt belong in contention because literally nobody but Colby wants to see that fight again.

Jorge can go do his little BMF gimmick fights idgaf
