Jorge Masvidal is one of the most well-known fighters in the UFC. Masvidal had a stellar 2019 that started with a knockout win over Darren Till, followed by a record-breaking knockout over Ben Askren and winning the BMF title fight against Nate Diaz by the end of the year. 

Since then, Masvidal has become one of the most in-demand athletes in the UFC. ‘Gamebred’ has since been seen everywhere from podcasts to shows to the cover of UFC 4. Therefore, it was no surprise when it was announced that he would join Donald Trump Jr. on a tour bus across Miami.

‘Gamebred’ recently addressed a gathering of people before Donald Trump Jr. He said, “Since I was about knee-high, I’ve been hearing about the horrors of communism and socialism. We either re-elect President Trump and keep America great again, or we elect Joe Biden and the radical left take us down the slippery slopes of socialism and misery.”

It is well known that Jorge Masvidal’s parents are Cuban. However, to seek a better life, his father escaped Cuba and migrated to America. “Gamebred’ was born and raised in Miami, where he is now a prominent figure. 

It was recently announced that Masvidal would take a campaign bus along with Donald Trump Jr. across South Florida. This is a part of the “Fighters Against Socialism” initiative by the President. The aforementioned areas are densely populated with Hispanics such as Masvidal himself. Having Jorge on board will help persuade the Hispanics in the said region to vote for the current president for a second term.
