They\u2019re great at jiu-jitsu even off their backs, but that thing \u2013 they don\u2019t kick, they don\u2019t wrestle.<\/p>\n\u201cThere are a lot of things they don\u2019t do,” he continued. “But what makes them stand out from other fighters is the dog in them. The game.\u00a0And that\u2019s what I wanted to get after. I wanted to get in there and see who\u2019s more dog \u2013 who\u2019s really got that dog in them, that game. That\u2019s what I was looking the most forward to.\u201d<\/p>\n
While Jorge Masvidal has tremendous respect for Nick and Nate Diaz, he doesn’t think either fight makes sense right now. He’s been out for well over a year, and wants to fight somebody he’s sure will actually show up.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt depends on which stage of my life I\u2019d be in,\u201d Masvidal said. \u201cRight now, (I wouldn\u2019t want it), because I just want to fight. I want a guaranteed fight. I don\u2019t want something like this to happen. I just want to fight. So, right now, I wouldn\u2019t want to fight anybody that\u2019s had like a high rate of signing and then somehow, some way end up not fighting, whether it\u2019s by injury or whatever it is. I wouldn\u2019t want to fight anybody like that. I want to fight somebody that\u2019s pretty dead-locked when they sign the contract\u201d<\/p>\n
