Jorge Masvidal: I’m going to kick Demian Maia’s ass, and the fight won’t reach the third round

Jorge Masvidal has established himself as one of the top contenders in the UFC’s welterweight division. After suffering two split decision losses to Ben Henderson and Lorenz Larkin, “Gamebred” has rattled off three straight wins, including consecutive stoppages of Jake Ellenberger and Donald Cerrone. Masvidal is now set for a big showdown with Demian Maia at UFC 211 on May 13th, and as he told BJ Penn Radio, he believes he has what it takes to hang with the BJJ specialist on the ground.
