UFC welterweight Jorge Masvidal went to Twitter and continued his reputation as a UFC in a long feud. The ‘BMF’ champion has been opposed to promotion for about a month after public disputes have broken out. Masvidal has expressed his displeasure with the UFC over the issue of fighting wages.
This back and forth is a recurring problem that the company has faced since it entered the mainstream.
‘Gamebred’ spoke out against the UFC, according to the light heavyweight champion Jon Jones. Both top athletes have publicly expressed their dissatisfaction, which was not a good sign for Dana White. Not to mention the UFC president’s stance on paying fighters. He also publicly pushed back against the athletes and largely refuted their claims.
Given these events, it appears that both fighters will no longer compete in the octagon in the near future. Jorge Masvidal was particularly affected as he would be missed for a title fight against Kamaru Usman. According to UFC-Messing, he was offered the fight, but declined after his payment requirements were not fully met.
Several fighters have taken part in the pay talk and are calling for union formation.
