It will be interesting to see what Masvidal comes up with. He did a similar thing to Kamaru Usman in 2020. He released a video titled, ‘The Multiple Personalities of Kamaru Usman.’ He, later on, fought the welterweight champion twice.

Both fighters will be high on tension going into the fight. However, a win in this match should also make them the front runners to face ‘The Nigerian Nightmare‘ again. They both have fought him twice and come out on the losing side, and would want another shot at him.
This guy is a legit snake – Jorge Masvidal on Colby Covington
Masvidal and Covington can’t stand each other anymore. They just want to get inside the octagon at UFC 272 and want to fight. This is as personal as it gets in the fight business and Masvidal agrees.
According to him, all his fights are business, but this one is close to being personal. In an interview, he said, “This individual lived on my couch for a year. While he had his hand broken. He was living off my couch, was eating the food that they were giving me because I was already a sponsored athlete. He was an amateur coming into the world.”
“So it puts a lot of things in perspective. You come into this world alone and you f**king probably go out alone as well, you know. This guy’s a legit snake.”
