Jorge Masvidal hasn’t soured on USADA after Nate Diaz’s UFC 244 standoff

Every fighter has a different way of dealing with anxiety. UFC welterweight Jorge Masvidal eats his feelings.

A three-piece and soda wasn’t enough to calm Masvidal after 15 texts about Nate Diaz and his drug testing woes. Nine days before their “BMF” title fight, everything got tossed into the air when Diaz announced he’d failed a pre-fight drug test.

First, Masvidal was pissed that so many people had his phone number. Then, he thought he’d been trolled by a Photoshop expert. He was cool with neither.

”Then I looked a little harder, and it wasn’t Photoshopped,” Masvidal said.
