UFC’s BMF titleholder, Jorge Masvidal, has recently called out the pay-per-view King Conor McGregor in an interview. The Miami-based fighter has given fight fans some hope of having one of the most iconic fights in the promotion. Both fighters are fan favorites, and a fight between them could be huge for the UFC as well.

In a recent interview with ESPN, Jorge Masvidal took a shot at Conor McGregor. He slammed the former double champion and accused him of injecting steroids into his system to get bigger. He also revealed that he is open to a fight against the Irishman.

Masvidal said, “He is false, he knows that I am a man who hits hard and that I come to kill, I do not come to play hug in the cage, I am going to give everything inside me to kill him, and I have a little size, although now it is puncturing and putting steroids and all kinds of things, but he is still a little boy.”

“I would love to fight at 170 pounds, but I don’t wait for anyone. If he wants to do it, I’ll break his face, if he doesn’t want to do it, let him come next,” added ‘Street Jesus.’

He said,”“the body’s doing good. I’m out here my full team you know. Obviously, I’m enjoying the Monaco Grand Prix, and then you know. After that, we’re going to up the training a little bit, bit by bit. I should be able to kick now. Another CT scan now in the coming days and then I’ll be clear to kick. Once I can kick and grapple, I’ll be back in no time. So boxing training has gone well and strength training and that so I’m excited to get back.”
