It is not clearly stated who ‘Gamebred’ has targeted in his scathing tweet, however, scrutiny of the words leads one to assume that it is directed towards an all too familiar foe.

Jorge Masvidal puts out a scathing tweet slamming “an informant”

The 3rd ranked UFC Welterweight fighter took to social media and wrote, “you should get off whoever’s d**k you are hating on now. You talk a lot. That’s an understatement you are a certified informant.”

Based on a reply to the tweet from an account called ‘McGregor’s Burner’ fans may understand that the BMF Champion is targeting Dominance MMA’s Ali Abdelaziz.

The post shared by the account includes a picture of the MMA manager. Furthermore, a video indicates that ‘Gamebred’ is taking a leaf from the recently retired former 2 division UFC Champion Conor McGregor. In his 2nd last fight in the company, ‘Notorious’ took on one of Abdelaziz’s fighters in Khabib Nurmagomedov.

He branded the manager an informant. After that, he gave the audience a plethora of warnings about people like him ahead of the clash at UFC 229.

Masvidal’s beef with Abdelaziz could have stemmed from the fact that he has bad blood with his client Kamaru Usman. Earlier, ‘Gamebred’ was in line for a Welterweight title clash. Unfortunately for him, due to recent events, the UFC overlooked him. Subsequently, Gilbert Burns took his spot in the UFC 251 Welterweight title fight.

‘Durinho’ to his credit has put in a dominant last few months. He beat Demian Maia and Tyron Woodley to jump from 6th to 1st in the Welterweight rankings. 

Meanwhile, Jorge Masvidal who had a stellar 2019 is yet to fight in 2020. He beat Darren Till at Fight Night: Till vs Masvidal. Following that, he claimed the fastest knockout against Ben Askren in UFC history at UFC 239. Later, at UFC 244, he won the symbolic BMF title by beating Nate Diaz.

Do you think the tweet was directed to Ali Abdelaziz? Or is Jorge Masvidal attacking someone else?
