Jorge Masvidal warns Nate Diaz ahead of boxing match
The two fighters previously faced off against each other earlier at UFC 244 for the BMF title. The fight ended in a controversial manner as doctors stopped the fight when Nate Diaz suffered a deep cut to his eyebrow. Following that last outing, the two UFC icons are now all set to settle their rivalry and prove who is the true BMF. Ahead of the fight, Masvidal issued a warning to Nate Diaz, stating:
Nate’s a dead man walking, can’t wait to prove that last time was no fluke. He got saved by the referee. Now we are boxing, which he says is his forte, but he’s got no shot at beating me. I’m not going to give him an inch in that ring to even breathe. If he thought our MMA match was bad, this is going to be much worse.”
