Jorge Masvidal Teases UFC Return, Says He'd Fight Conor McGregor 'In the Street'

Jorge Masvidal didn't even wait five months before teasing a return from retirement.

The original BMF title holder teased coming after the belt he presented to Justin Gaethje at last month's UFC 291 pay-per-view.

"I think I'm going to have to come back and snatch that belt up real quick. Something like that. But not at [155 pounds], they gotta come up to [170 pounds]," Masvidal told TMZ Sports.

The 38-year-old retired after a unanimous decision loss to Gilbert Burns in April, his fourth straight defeat in the Octagon. Despite clearly being in a decline as a fighter, Masvidal expressed confidence he could come back and take the BMF championship.
