“Looks Like Your Desperate for Money” – Jorge Masvidal Disappoints UFC World With New Career Move Hint

The UFC world witnessed Jorge Masvidal‘s retirement after his UFC 287 bout against Gilbert Burns. With a record of 35 victories and 17 losses, Masvidal decided to leave MMA after his loss via decision against Burns. The bout between the two was held on April 8th at Kaseya Center in Miami, Florida. Just weeks after his retirement from MMA, the former BMF champion hinted that he might work with AEW or WWE in the near future. The fans never expected Masvidal to jump into a new career option within such a short time. ‘Gamebred’ announced his retirement from the UFC after being a part of the promotion for ten long years.

He is famous in the UFC World for his carefree attitude and trash talk. ‘Gamebred’ made a lot of headlines when he attacked his UFC 272 opponent, Colby Covington, outside a restaurant in Miami after he lost against Covington via decision. The UFC star had to face legal complications regarding the same. Nonetheless, now he wants to try his hands at pro wrestling to show the guys some “discipline.”

Jorge Masvidal talks about turning to professional wrestling

During an interview with ESPN MMA, ‘Gamebred’ was asked if he would try his hands at professional wrestling. As an answer to the question, Masvidal said, “If it’s AEW, if it’s WWE, if it’s at a parking lot, at KFC; as long as they pay me, we can play. I’ll go over there right now, right now, and domesticate the f*ck outta these pro wrestlers. They need some discipline and direction over there. I’m the dude to do it to them.” 

Masvidal made it clear that he won’t mind turning to wrestling if he receives a huge paycheck. Talking further on the same topic, the former BMF Champion said, “They send me over there, Endeavor, AEW; wherever the f*ck they wanna send me to, I’ll go show these guys some discipline, and put them right in line and domesticate them. But they gotta pay your boy, and that’s a nice ticket right there….If they’re gonna pay me, yeah.”
