“And of course I’d like to fight Conor. Not just because he brings in a lot of cash and eyeballs to the sport, but he’s a two-time champion. He’s one of the few to do it and he did it in outstanding fashion. Both guys that he defeated for the belt, he did it with no pressure, no resistance, nothing. So it would be an honor to fight with him.” stated Masvidal.

But again Masvidal is not going to show any respect to Conor if he ever squares off against him in the cage. He feels after everything Conor has done outside the octagon the fans want to see McGregor punished for his deeds. And the Street Jesus is happy to make their wishes come true with another baptism. Masvidal issued a warning to Conor with the following statement:

“What the world is looking for him to suffer and get chastised for some of the things that he’s done in public. Everybody’s going to feel sorry for him after the fight, I can tell you that much. They’ll forgive him all after the fight I can promise you that.”
