Jorge Masvidal Willing To Accept Title Shot if UFC Passes up 'Good Friend' Colby Covington

Jorge Masvidal is back in a big way, coming off a long layoff as an underdog in hostile territory and minting himself as a potential title challenger with one gigantic left hook to the chin of Darren Till.

Before Saturday night, the 34-year-old Masvidal hadn’t competed since his unanimous decision loss to former welterweight title challenger Stephen Thompson at UFC 217 in November 2017. “Gamebred” came into the fight riding a two-fight losing streak and with his brutal second-round knockout, proved he still has what it takes to compete with the best in the division.
