UFC welterweight Jorge Masvidal is known to share a variety of stuff on Facebook. He recently shared an article that left many scratching their heads. The article reported an incident where a man paid his ex-wife child support in 80,000 pennies.

Sharing the article, Masvidal wrote, “The father claims that the mother was using the daughter as a Bank Account and a Weapon…”.

The fighter has previously shared many memes, videos, and articles on Facebook, which are varying in nature.

Masvidal’s arch-rival, Colby Covington, has spoken about his family and alleged issues several times. This was especially prominent, leading up to their UFC 272 bout earlier this year.

‘Chaos’ spoke a lot about Jorge Masvidal’s previous marriage, child support, and whatnot. As reported by ‘MiddleEasy‘, the fighter drew a comparison between Tyron Woodley and Masvidal saying both had to pay for child support.

Covington further went on to say ‘Gamebred’ was ducking him. Regardless, the UFC 272 tight took place in March this year. Covington won the fight through a unanimous decision. However, it did little to put the fire out between them.

If anything, their rivalry only increased, wherein they got into a brawl on the streets of Miami. Thus, it would be interesting to see if this results in yet another grudge fight.

What’s ahead for Jorge Masvidal?

The UFC 272 loss left many people questioning the next step in Masvidal’s career. Several fight fans also contemplated whether the 37-year-old would retire soon. However, it doesn’t seem so.

He has also been taking digs at UFC star, Conor McGregor, who has been on the sidelines ever since his loss to Dustin Poirier at UFC 264. The Irishman hopes to make a comeback and many feel a Masvidal-McGregor fight at welterweight would be a great matchup. After all, both the fighters are coming off losses.

Thus, it would be interesting to see if their feud goes anywhere close to the Octagon. However, ever since Leon Edwards became the welterweight champion, people have been wondering if a potential fight between them is possible as they too have history.
