Ever since his thunderous, second round knockout of Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone back in January, Jorge Masvidal has had a difficult time finding a willing opponent for his next fight<\/a> \u2013 and that’s not for lack of trying. Over the last few weeks, the Cuban contender has made several callouts on social media in attempt to get a fight booked. His latest callout was directed at Neil Magny<\/a>.<\/p>\n

At first, Magny seemed to be down with the notion of this scrap. According to Masvidal, however, Magny refused to put pen to paper, citing an injury that will keep him on the shelf for some time.<\/p>\n

Masvidal explained the situation on the latest episode of BJ Penn Radio<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn social media he\u2019s like \u2018yeah, I\u2019ll fight you\u2019. I forget what he was saying, but he was saying that he would take me up on the $200,000 bet. Then when [matchmaker] Sean Shelby calls him, he says \u2018oh I\u2019m injured indefinitely.\u2019 What the f*ck? You know what I\u2019m saying? What the f*ck…\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cIf you don\u2019t want to fight, I get it,” Masvidal continued. “I don\u2019t want to be a bully. I\u2019m not going to bully nobody into the ring. You don\u2019t want to fight, that\u2019s cool, but don\u2019t talk shit on social media saying you\u2019ll fight me or that you\u2019ll fight anybody when you won\u2019t. You\u2019re sitting at home f*cking eating sushi, playing video games, and I\u2019m at the gym every day, ready to compete.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

“Once he thinks there’s actually a fight happening, he’s gone cold turkey. He don’t want nothing to do with it. The dude said something about a hand injury or something. I wish him a speedy recovery if that’s the case. If he’s truly hurt, God be with him and I hope he recovers, but how are you on Twitter using your hands to type, talking about how your hand is hurt?”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
