Targeting a professional boxing debut later this year amid links to a return to combat sports, UFC veteran, Jorge Masvidal claims multiple offers have been floated toward former Octagon title challenger, Chael Sonnen – who he vowed to viciously beat if they ever share the squared circle.
Masvidal, a former two-time welterweight title challenger, called time on his professional mixed martial arts career back in April of last year in his native Miami, suffering his fourth consecutive loss.
Book-ending his career with a decision defeat to fellow former title challenger, Gilbert Burns, Floridian veteran, Masvidal has been linked with a return to combat sports in the form of a boxing match against fellow UFC alum, Nate Diaz, however, despite rumblings of a pairing as soon as next month, a re-run failed to come to fruition.
