Jorge Masvidal teases a return to the Octagon

After losing to Gilbert Burns last year, Jorge Masvidal decided not to go to the drawing board and instead, chose to retire after a twenty-year career and play a role in helping other fighters. He amassed an impressive record of 35 wins and 17 losses. Nevertheless, Masvidal never ruled out the possibility of coming back to the UFC if he gets a good enough reason to do so. MMA is all that ‘Gamebred’ has known for most of his life and, as such, he took to social media for a tease.

“Unretired,” said Jorge Masvidal. In just a one-word tweet, he sent fans into a frenzy. He has been busy promoting fights for his ‘Gamebred Promotions,’ but now we might just get to see the former BMF return to Dana White‘s promotion. The fans were excited to learn that Masvidal is considering a return as they started naming opponents for the Miami native. Let’s see what they had to say.

Fans start naming opponents for ‘Gamebred’

The fans were excited about the idea of Jorge Masvidal’s return as they started playing matchmakers for his UFC return. One of the first fighters they suggested ‘Gamebred’ to fight again was Nate Diaz, whom he defeated to earn the inaugural BMF title.

Other fans had similar ideas for Masvidal’s return to the Octagon but they want to see him at UFC 300.

Some sections of fans also suggested that the former BMF champion could consider a fight against Nate’s older brother, Nick Diaz.

Nevertheless, Nate Diaz was the most discussed opponent for Jorge Masvidal.

Meanwhile, one fan suggested that ‘Gamebred’ gets his revenge against Colby Covington.

A user on Twitter (X) suggested that ‘Gamebred’ should make his return to the fast-rising combat sport, bare-knuckle boxing.

However, some fans believe that Jorge Masvidal may return to fight Jake Paul like many other MMA fighters in the past.
