  • Honestly, I believe him. Jorge seems like a guy that will swing on you for no reason lol. UFC and reputation is the only reason that man isn’t trading Ramen for toothpaste in prison.
  • Someone gotta tell Jorge it doesn’t hurt to ask questions
  • George needs therapy
  • He playing a video game
  • Ever since the backyard brawls with kimbo
  • Great he assaulted 3 dudes for absolutely nothing……what a champion
  • Sounds like Jorge belongs in prison

Many fans have sounded off on Jorge Masvidal. They claimed that Masvidal does look like a person who would not shy away from throwing his fists. They think that he needs to seek therapy and learn to talk his way through instead of getting into physical altercations. Some funnily remarked that he was playing a real-life video game.
