The ‘BMF’ champion is not taking “no” for a answer.
At UFC 251 in July, Jorge Masvidal finally got his welterweight title shot. After being the frontrunner for the next crack at Kamaru Usman for half a year, the UFC ultimately gave the fight to Gilbert Burns. However, when Burns was forced out of the bout shortly beforehand, Masvidal stepped in on a week’s notice. It didn’t go well. After a good opening round, Masvidal was dominated by Usman’s wrestling and forced to spend long stretches of the bout pinned up against the cage.
