‘Gamebred’ once got into a brawl with three European individuals in China. He was in the men’s bathroom, minding his business and waiting in line to wash his hand. Masvidal said, “These guys are behind me and somebody picks up my chain with their fingers like that and turns to his friend and starts saying something in a language that I am not understanding,” said Jorge Masvidal.

Jorge Masvidal did what he always does when he gets into these situations. He knocked all three of them out as they rushed towards him. ‘Gamebred’ only got physical when they got closer to him. He said, “[I knocked] the f*** out. Him and his two buddies, they rushed me. The one dude that got in my face, I told him to get back. He didn’t understand me, he got closer, boom! Down.” Moreover, he claimed that the assailants were drunk when they got in his face.

The former UFC star had to flee from the scene of the altercation

Knocking out the European individuals was not the end of Masvidal’s problems. He went to wash his hands after knocking the guys out. But one of them claimed that the police were on the way because they had heard about someone getting beat up in the public bathroom. Masvidal didn’t want to take any chances and fled the scene.

This was due to the fact that it is hard for people to get bail in China once they get arrested. ‘Gamebred’ didn’t want any legal trouble in another country. He said, “In China, if you go to jail, you don’t see the judge, you don’t get bail for 10 days. So right or wrong, you’re going to be in there for 10 days if you do get arrested. I wasn’t going to take that chance, so I just took off.”
