Jorge Masvidal is once again clamoring for a chance to take on the biggest name in MMA. He’s even willing to put his partially-serious-but-partially-joking “BMF” belt, earned against Nate Diaz, on the line, to entice the Irish superstar back into the Octagon. Masvidal detailed his position in an interview with Blockasset, hoping to face the Irishman before he “overdoses on cocaine”.
“Obviously, before this guy overdoses on cocaine and then the fight never happens and I don’t get to make all that easy money, I just want to break Conor’s face.
Masvidal Puts BMF Belt On the Line for McGregor Fight
Let’s get that paycheck, let’s get that out of the way, selling the most pay-per-views ever before this guy does harm to himself or somebody else. I just, like, boom, get that check real quick because I got kids, right? I need the f****** money. I’d bring out the BMF belt only for a bad m*********** and some cash money.
You a bad m***********, you got money, let’s put some money, let’s get a little escrow going. I put a couple million aside, you put a couple million aside and it comes with the belt as a cherry on top. That’s what a bad m*********** would do is get this money. It’s there, but it has to be right under my stipulations, and with that belt I’m like a f****** tyrant.”
Conor McGregor isn’t the only option for Jorge Masvidal, however. The two-time title contender has a long-running beef with Leon Edwards, who is next in line to challenge Kamaru Usman for the welterweight belt. Should Edwards emerge victorious, a long-awaited grudge match may come to fruition.
“That’s another intangible. Am I going to say no to fighting for the title? Hell no. I’ll get my ass in shape and get ready for this f****** hooligan and give it all I got to break his face. There’s a lot of intangibles, a lot of things that can happen. I could be getting ready for No. 10 of the world and then all of a sudden I’m fighting for the world championship.
Remember, I’m Jorge Masvidal, I’m the same guy that took that world championship fight on six days’ notice in the middle of the [Coronavirus] pandemic, flew all the way across the world to throw down that fight. What I’m telling you is I don’t even know what I’m going to do myself. I’m unpredictable like that. I’m going to go with the best options all the time.”
