This time he will have a full training camp under his belt. Another significant difference will be the presence of the fans in the building at the pay-per-view in Jacksonville, Florida.

Masvidal explained why he is excited to have the fans back in the building. “I mean, you hear yourself, you see yourself. These guys want violence.

“And let me tell you that they don’t cheer for me because I’m so good looking or the food that I eat, none of that,” said Masvidal.
