UFC 244: Conor McGregor requests the infamous Masvidal meal at BK
UFC 244 - The BMF Champion is pretty confident that he can beat Conor McGregor after his fight against Nate Diaz. Conor McGregor takes to Twitter to respond.
Jorge Masvidal may have had an anticlimactic victory this past Saturday at the UFC 244 event, but it clearly does not take away from his pure dominance over Nate Diaz.
With Masvidal now being the BMF of UFC, there have been a lot of talks around who Conor McGregor could face for his self-proclaimed January return to the octagon. At the UFC 244 post-fight press conference, Jorge Masvidal was asked about being a potential McGregor foe.
Jorge Masvidal addresses Conor McGregor at the UFC 244 post-fight press conference:
“I don’t know man, that dude has been talking wild for a second. If he fights and gets a victory and he wants this – and some of you motherf**kers are mean because you know what the f**k I’ll do to that little dude, bro. I’ll f**k that little guy up man. He is a f**king midget.”
The newly crowned BMF Jorge Masvidal again questioned McGregor’s willingness to step up to a fight against him.

The Irishman, who had been closely keeping up with the Diaz-Masvidal fight, was clearly not going to hold back as he responded to Jorge’s remarks with a tweet referencing Masvidal’s “three-piece and a soda” line from his fight against Ben Askren.
UFC News: Conor McGregor returning to face Jorge Masvidal for the BMF title?
