Jorge Masvidal has made it clear in the past he isn’t exactly fond of Ben Askren, but has expressed his distaste for his UFC 239 opponent by saying he wants to “torture” him in their fight.
Masvidal (33-13) snapped a two-fight losing streak last month when he knocked out Darren Till in the main event of UFC London. That fight meant “Gamebred” jumped up to number four in the welterweight rankings, earning a fight with Askren who is at the number five slot.
Masvidal spoke about why he dislikes Askren so much on the most recent edition of The JRE MMA Show.
