Jorge Masvidal is reputed as one of the most fierce strikers inside the Octagon. The ‘BMF’ is known for knocking down and bursting his opponents open with his heavy hand shots. His brutal body kicks and knees are a force to be feared as well. ‘Gamebred’ also holds the record for the fastest knockout, which he scored against Ben Askren. Since then, MMA fans have been eagerly waiting to see him locking horns with another fierce striker and arguably the biggest star of the sport, ‘The Notorious’ Conor McGregor.
But, the fans have only received disappointment as the president had reportedly denied the possibility of this hugely awaited showdown. The boss’s decision also enraged Masvidal. Since then, he has gone to diss ‘Mystic Mac’ a number of times while appearing on public platforms.

Jorge Masvidal crossed all limits on the Adam Carolla Show

Carolla started off things by questioning Masvidal, “Are you looking to get Conor McGregor in the Octagon?”.

Carolla had another question for ‘Gamebred’. He asked, “He had a really bad injury last time he fought. Is he coming back? Do you know?. The ‘BMF’ went ‘full-on-rogue’ as he answered Carolla, “I don’t know, I heard it like when your va**na’s hurt so much it’s hard to come back from it, so I’ve no idea if he’s coming back in a …”
Masvidal’s reply had the other guests enthralled as Grad replied, “That’s true. I can vouch for that”. Her sarcasm was pretty apparent as well.
Why the Masvidal vs McGregor showdown hasn’t happened?
The reason for this can never be documented. UFC president, ‘Dana White’, denied the offers of any such fight. McGregor had been dominantly fighting in the ‘155lb’ division and earning good money for them.
