Jorge Masvidal carries on in his battle with the UFC. The BMF titleholder has been unable to come to terms with the promotion regarding his next fight and its purse.
Following in Jon Jones’ footsteps, “Gamebred” is continuously fighting to ensure that he, as well as all other UFC fighter, get their fair share of the pie. He said that while players from other sports leagues like NFL make 40-50% of the gate, UFC fighters only make around 18%.

Jorge Masvidal determined to win the battle against UFC
Ever since Jorge Masvidal blasted off at the UFC, he has garnered a lot of support from fighters and fans alike. He started the whole saga by demanding a release from the UFC. This was because negotiations for any fight with Kamaru Usman were unsuccessful.

Of course, the President of the UFC, Dana White, eventually met with a question regarding Masvidal’s comments. He took a bold stance and reminded the Welterweight that he had seven fights on his contract left. Masvidal did not take lightly to Dana’s comments and thus started his Twitter rant.
I’m in a contract that I had to take to get paid. Same way I got a new contract to fight till. Then a new contract to fight Nate. They keep extending the amounts of fights to my contract to keep me locked up and when I say I only want a 4 fight contract it’s take it or leave it.
