Jorge Masvidal doubts that Colby Covington will fight again.<\/p>\n

In the main event of UFC 245, Covington took on Kamaru Usman for the welterweight title in what was a back-and-forth fight. Yet, in the fifth round, “The Nigerian Nightmare” took over and dropped “Chaos” twice before finishing him with 50 seconds left<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After the fight, Covington took to social media to blame ref Marc Goddard for a bad stoppage<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Due to the loss and subsequent broken jaw, Jorge Masvidal believes his former best friend and roommate won’t fight again.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think he comes back,” Masvidal said to FanSided<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If he does come back, Jorge Masvidal would be interested in that fight down the line. But, he believes it would not be a close scrap. Instead, he thinks he would beat Covington for 24 minutes before eventually knocking him out cold.<\/p>\n

\u201cTwenty-four minutes of beating his ass, and then put him out,\u201d Masvidal said. \u201cAnd that\u2019s that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jorge Masvidal has options for his next fight, including being he next man to challenge Kamaru Usman for the welterweight title.<\/p>\n

\u201cGamebred\u201d has also shown interest in big money fights like Nick Diaz and Conor McGregor<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But, if he fights Usman, Jorge Masvidal knows he is the better fighter and promises to ‘break his face’.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I fight Usman, I\u2019m going to break his face,\u201d Masvidal said. \u201cHe can\u2019t hang with me, he\u2019s too one-dimensional, he\u2019s not skilled and he sure as hell ain\u2019t tough.\u201d<\/p>\n

As for Colby Covington, American Top Team owner, Dan Lambert says Covington still wants to prove he is the best in the world<\/a>. Yet, Masvidal is skeptical “Chaos” even fights again after the loss.<\/p>\n
