Jorge Masvidal is perplexed by Nick Diaz’s recent comments and is unsure if he really wants to fight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Gamebred” is coming off a victory against Diaz’s younger brother, Nate Diaz at UFC 244 on November 2.<\/a> The fight was ended after round three due to a doctor’s stoppage, leaving Masvidal to claim victory and the unprecedented “BMF” title. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal respect each other’s ability, that didn’t stop verbal jabs being thrown during press conferences (before and after their fight). During an interview with Ariel Helwani,<\/a> Gamebred said he wanted to “baptize” the younger Diaz brother. Nate’s older brother Nick Diaz did not appreciate the Miami native’s comment and is seemingly willing to resume his fighting career to give Masvidal a taste of his own medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAll I see is f*cking dollar signs right now. It\u2019s not on me. You wanna talk about baptizing my younger brother, that\u2019s on you. I never had anything disrespectful to say, but you don\u2019t talk about baptizing my younger brother,” said Diaz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“So you\u2019re already in a f*cked up position if you fight with me. You don\u2019t f*cking talk about baptizing someone\u2019s younger brother. That\u2019s my baby brother, you don\u2019t talk like that to nobody. So who rides on who\u2019s side?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou wanna say that? You wanna do that? You wanna walk? That\u2019s on you. I can relate to you, that\u2019s why I ain\u2019t mad at you. But if you wanna walk, that\u2019s on you.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During an episode of The Dan LeBatard Show, Masvidal said he was unsure about the seriousness of Diaz’s comments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIs he asking to fight? I was confused or are we going for a walk some place? He\u2019s asking for a fight? He\u2019s asking for a fight or to go for a walk? Does he know who he\u2019s asking for a fight?” Masvidal said (via\u00a0MMAFighting.com<\/a>). \u201cCause I love to fight, especially when I get a little something on top of that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whoever Masvidal ends up facing, he is already anticipating a hefty payout:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t know who\u2019s next but everybody\u2019s looking like cash symbols, cash money to us right now. The next person is going to be the one that puts the most zeros in the bank account, who that [is].<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA lot of people are saying my name now. They didn\u2019t want to fight me before, like a year or two [ago], they didn\u2019t want to fight me. Everybody wants to call me out now. So it\u2019s funny to me because these same guys didn\u2019t want to fight me two or three years ago.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who would you like to see Masvidal face? Let us know in the comments below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
