Now that Masvidal has admitted himself that he has been training for months

[Captain Herb]

no he didnt jorge said he didnt get what he wanted. ufc made him bend a knee.

UFC gave him what he wanted and made him promise not to tell anyone.

 

[WhitestKidU’Know]

This is win/win for Mas... He got the leverage of a desperate UFC and a big payday. PLUS coming in on a week's notice he will have a built in and fully realistic excuse when he is dominated by Usman for 5 rounds.

His stock only goes up no matter how badly Jorge gets beaten on Saturday.

You could be right but Masvidal seems to be in an amazing place mentally right now and there is no way of knowing how a dominant defeat will affect him.

There is definitely high risk in this for Masvidal. He is in such a great place right now and he is probably thinking the same thing you are, not taking into consideration how taking a dominate L here would impact his mentality.

Masvidal has proven me wrong again and again though so I'm probably wrong.

I hope Mas gets the KO. I would love to see Mas continue his rise.

They don't want fighters to think they can ask for more for a replacement fight because there's probably going to be a lot of them but there's no way he jumps on a plane at the last minute for the same money. They'll give him same base plus undisclosed so other people can't use it to negotiate short notice fights.

 

[M4D SCIENTIST]

Staying "fit" and training for a fight are two completely different things.

I know the exact interview op is referring to. Jorge just says he’s been staying in shape. Running a couple times a week, lifting weights, and training twice or three times a week sometimes. Definitely nothing close to a training camp.

I didn't know usman was 33 til recently. I cant count mas out now. Any minute now usman can fall out of his prime.

so jorge is lying when he said he not making more money for this fight. jorge was never taling about his fight purse contract he was talking about ppv buys. jorge is doing this to play the victim card and say the ufc forced him to fight.he do that in a way to save his brand.
