Jorge Masvidal scored arguably this biggest win of his career earlier this month, defeating former Bellator and ONE champion Ben Askren by way of knockout.<\/p>\n

‘Gamebred’ set a record for the ‘fastest knockout in his history’ with the win, as he needed on 5-seconds to put an end to Askren’s undefeated streak.<\/p>\n

Following his historic win over ‘Funky’ at UFC 239, Jorge Masvidal spoke with BJPENN.com where he revealed that his next fight would be finalized within the next thirty days<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Most recently, Masvidal’s managers took to social media where they revealed that ‘Gamebred’ is only willing to accept two fights.<\/p>\n

The first fighter mentioned by Malki Kawa was reigning UFC<\/a> welterweight champion Kamaru Usman.<\/p>\n

‘The Nigerian Nightmare’ has not competed since March where he defeated Tyron Woodley via unanimous to capture the promotions coveted 170-pound title. While many fans and analysts have stated their desire to see Jorge Masvidal fight for the welterweight gold, Usman thinks people need to ‘slow down<\/a>‘ on the title talk.<\/p>\n

The second fighter that ‘Gamebred’ is willing to scrap next is none other than former promotional ‘champ champ’ Conor McGregor.<\/p>\n

‘Mystic Mac’ has not stepped foot inside the octagon since October of 2018, where he suffered a fourth round submission loss to reigning lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov.<\/p>\n

Check out what the Kawa brothers, who manage Jorge Masvidal, wrote on Twitter below.<\/p>\n

Just confirmed @GamebredFighter<\/a> next fight will be either for the championship (if Usman accepts) or @TheNotoriousMMA<\/a> (if he accepts). Those are the only 2 fights he is taking. Source: his Mgr @Abraham_kawa<\/a><\/p>\n
