The United States of America is currently facing one of the all-time high inflation rates. The inflation rate in the USA has shot 8.4% over the year, which is the highest year-on-year increase since 1981. A major reason behind the high inflation rate is the gasoline price in the country.

Pointing at this, the famous UFC fighter took a dig at the American President Joe Biden. Masvidal has always been open to expressing his thoughts about political matters. And at times has shown his support to the former President of America Donald Trump.

Recently, ‘Gamebred’ demanded to be paid in gasoline for his next fight amidst the rising prices. My next fight I want to get paid in gasoline.” Masvidal wrote on his official Twitter account.

Following this, Masvidal tweeted another video while taking a jibe at Biden. In the video, we can see Joe Biden stammer while giving a speech. Right after that, Trump’s video is added in which he says, “That’s when I realized he’s a f#*king idiot.”

The former welterweight title challenger is currently facing a bad phase in his UFC career. Despite that, ‘Gamebred’ recently signed a new deal with the promotion.

Unfortunately, Masvidal is currently on a three-fight skid. He must get back into his winning form to stay relevant in the title race. A rematch against his previous opponent, Nate Diaz, seems a good option for Masvidal.
