Jorge Masvidal calls for rematch with Kamaru Usman over Conor McGregor payday

Jorge Masvidal didn’t put up much of a fight in Saturday’s UFC 251 loss to Kamaru Usman.

But he’s ready for a rematch.

The UFC welterweight called for another shot at the champion on Tuesday in an interview with ESPN’s Ariel Helwani.

“I want that damn belt, and I'm stubborn,” Masvidal said. “And I know I'm better than Usman, and I want to prove it. I want to fight again.”

Usman dominated

Masvidal lost the bout at “Fight Island” in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, in a five-round decision.
