Colby Covington or Nate Diaz? Who is next for Jorge Masvidal?

The video hints at the BMF title being back in play in the new year. This keeps with the UFC’s announcement that they were looking to run the fight back. However, over the last seven days, there has been a buzz surrounding a Colby Covington vs Jorge Masvidal title eliminator fight.

‘Chaos’ is coming off a dominant win and is the top-ranked welterweight contender. He has no reason to fight the fourth-ranked fighter to earn a title shot. But he may wish to do so to settle a long-standing beef. 

The possibility of settling this feud within the octagon could put the BMF title on the back burner, or so it felt until Diaz shared this clip. It served as a reminder to fans that despite the rankings; he is one of the more popular fighters in the division, if not the entire promotion.
