Masvidal shared his thoughts about McGregor. In addition to this, he also revealed a piece of an important news.
Masvidal said, “You know, as a competitor, he ain’t bad. But as a person, I can’t stand this f**king rat b*tch, you know. And it’s just like, give you an example. Khabib wins the belt, what does Conor do? Go talk sh*t about him. F**king, somebody at 205 will go win a belt, he’ll go and talk sh*t.”

“Like he just wants to stay relevant. Obviously, I’m still a hot topic while this b*tch-a*s is just f**king in his couch, sniffing c*ke, or whatever the f*ck he is doing, you know. And he wants to stay relevant, so he takes shots, but he’s not going to fight, you know. The UFC’s offered him this fight … this could be the biggest fight in UFC’s history.”
Masvidal revealed the UFC has offered McGregor to fight him. However, as per Masvidal, the Irish fighter won’t cash on the fight, because he fears a defeat.
Both Masvidal and McGregor are strikers and not wrestlers. So a loss against another striker would not be a good look for ‘The Notorious’.

Masvidal hasn’t fought at lightweight in years. Hence, it would be difficult for him to make weight. However, McGregor has fought in three different weight classes; this includes welterweight.
With so much going on between both the fighters, it would be interesting to see if their super-fight happens. After all, it would be a big hit with their combined star power.
