It appears that Jorge Masvidal’s influence has gone from the octagon to the big screen.
While “Gamebred” might just be preparing himself for another crack at Kamaru Usman and the welterweight title, the soon-to-be released Mortal Kombat reboot will have shades of the “BMF” champion.
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, actor Lewis Tan, who plays the role of Cole Young, plays an MMA fighter who was a former champion that saw his hopes, dreams, confidence and accomplishments fade away over time. There is a scene in the movie where the character of Young is in a fight and he leans up against the cage, tapping into the iconic image of Masvidal before delivering one of the most memorable moments in the history of the sport.
