Amid links to a potential return to the UFC, Jorge Masvidal has provided a significant update on a potential return to the Octagon — claiming he may spring the “biggest news of the year” in the coming weeks, following positive talks with promotional officials.
Masvidal, a former two-time undisputed welterweight title challenger and the inaugural symbolic BMF titleholder, called time on his run with the promotion following a fourth consecutive loss at UFC 287 back in April of last year, dropping a one-sided decision loss against fellow ex-title challenger, Gilbert Burns.
And in the time since, the Miami veteran made a sophomore outing in the squared circle, taking on fellow UFC alum, Nate Diaz in a rematch of their 2019 clash in Madison Square Garden, suffering a majority decision defeat against the Stockton fan-favorite in Anaheim back in July of this year.
