Fresh off his ‘UFC Fight Night: Denver’ win over Donald ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone<\/a>\u00a0this past weekend, Jorge Masvidal<\/a> is already being linked to other matchups. After UFC President Dana White revealed that he had offered Demian Maia a fight with Masvidal, it didn’t take long for Masvidal to reveal that Maia turned the fight down:<\/p>\n

\"Jorge<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople are already turning fights down. Demian Maia didn\u2019t want this. They offered him the fight, and he didn\u2019t want it. I guess he wants to sit out. So I want to fight these top-10 dudes. Give me the toughest dudes you\u2019ve got.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

When asked who else he would like to fight, Masvidal was quick to go at a top ranked welterweight who wants to fight him:<\/p>\n

\"Neil<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll tell who you I don\u2019t like, because when I called him out with some respectful (expletive), like, hey, your opponent fell out and I\u2019m ready to fight, he was a coward, saying I didn\u2019t have enough pictures on social media, and who the (expletive) am I,\u201d Masvidal said. \u201cAnd now, he\u2019s dying to fight me \u2013 that little wimp Magny.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not that he turned me down \u2013 it was the way he said it,\u201d Masvidal said. \u201cActing like he didn\u2019t know who I was, and now he knows who I am? Get the (expletive) out of here.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

While Masvidal is riding an impressive 3-fight win streak that most recently saw him KO Donald Cerrone at ‘UFC Fight Night: Denver’ last weekend, Magny is coming off an impressive UFC 200 win over former UFC welterweight champion Johny Hendricks that saw him return to the win column after a TKO loss to Lorenz Larkin at UFC 202 snapped his 3-fight win streak.<\/p>\n

Only time will tell if these two will end up stepping in the Octagon together.<\/p>\n
