Jorge Masvidal thought he finally had a big fight lined up. After fighting three times in 2017, Masvidal sat out all of 2018 but was set to meet Nick Diaz in early 2019. Unfortunately for him, Diaz wasn’t actually interested in competing so he bowed out, leaving Masvidal out in the cold. So he’s trying to take things into his own hands.
“Gamebred” is usually pretty caustic on social media when it comes to calling out other fighters, but he took a different approach against the last welterweight title challenger. Masvidal respectfully asked Darren Till for a fight, and he’s willing to do it on Till’s turf:
@darrentill2 I hear you having the same probs I am trying to find someone to fight you in your backyard.
