Jorge Masvidal has a few choice words for his upcoming opponent, Kamaru Usman.<\/p>\n

The welterweight stars will face off this weekend in the main event of UFC 251 on UFC Fight Island in Abu Dhabi.<\/p>\n

As with so many clashes, the verbal warfare has taken centre stage in the run-up to the fight. Despite claiming it is \u201cnothing personal\u201d, Jorge Masvidal\u2019s explicit insults and no filter approach have only contributed to the ongoing bad blood with the welterweight champion.<\/p>\n

It also isn\u2019t the first time things have become heated with his upcoming opponent. \u201cGamebred<\/a>\u201d faced off against Ben Askren in 2019. He would finish the former Bellator champion with a flying knee KO, but not before hurling a range of insults and threatening to \u201cend his blood line\u201d during pre-fight press events.<\/p>\n

For a second time, Masvidal is blurring the lines between what is business and personal as he called out Usman at a UFC 251 media day for his distasteful comments.<\/p>\n

\u201cLike I said in the Askren fight before and after, it\u2019s never personal. It\u2019s always business. There\u2019s just people that I probably didn\u2019t get along too well with … But with Usman, for a fact, has crossed lines that no other competitor that I\u2019ve fought has talked about,\u201d the 35-year old said (via MMA Mania<\/a>). \u201cHe\u2019s talked about things he\u2019s going to do to my butthole, which I don\u2019t understand why he\u2019s talking about my butthole. He\u2019s talking about my ethnicity, whether I\u2019m this or not. He\u2019s telling people that I\u2019m saying I\u2019m God.\u201d<\/p>\n

For \u201cThe Nigerian Nightmare\u201d, his upcoming fight will be his second title defence. The last time the 33-year old fought was against Masvidal\u2019s former training partner, Colby Covington at UFC 245 in 2019. His striking and endurance paid off as the champion was able to seal the fifth round TKO win and retain his title. Masvidal is also riding high off statement wins against Nate Diaz, Ben Askren and Darren Till. He is confident that his formidable striking abilities will come up trumps during his title shot showdown this weekend.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can\u2019t find the video or a Twitter or nothing ever saying that I said I\u2019m God. So, this guy\u2019s just doing a lot of things that are going to cause him to get hurt in a very violent way,” Masvidal said. “If the referee trips on the way to stopping me, and I get to get a couple extra, extra punches, I wouldn\u2019t mind.\u201d<\/p>\n

Who do you think will take home the victory in the UFC 251 title fight?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
