Veteran head coach, Mike Brown claims long-time American Top Team ace, Jorge Masvidal is most definitely “focused” ahead of a potential return to the UFC next year — claiming the Miami native has “an itch” to compete in combat sports again.
Masvidal, a former two-time welterweight title challenger during his tenure inside the Octagon, also became the inaugural symbolic BMF champion back in 2019 with a doctor’s stoppage win over Nate Diaz at Madison Square Garden.
However, departing the promotion in April of last year following a fourth consecutive defeat in the form of a unanimous decision shutout against Brazilian veteran, Gilbert Burns, Masvidal has since competed in a professional boxing rematch against Diaz, suffering a controversial majority decision loss.
