It\u2019s not something I get to do often but whenever it\u2019s around, I play it. You couldn\u2019t tell it by tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the same interview, Masvidal dropped the timeframe for his next fight, naming November or December as the ideal choice. He also implied that he&#8217;s gunning for an immediate rematch with reigning UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1Rwwar\">\u201cHopefully, December\/November,\u201d Masvidal said of his next fight. \u201cMy opponent has a broken nose, he\u2019s going to be out for a couple days due to me. He does have a broken nose.<\/p>\n<p id=\"VF6NAu\">\u201cI think next week we\u2019re going to find out just how long he\u2019s out for and then we\u2019ll start determining who will be the next fight and where.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jorge Masvidal challenged Kamaru Usman for the UFC welterweight title in the main event of UFC 251 in early July. He accepted that championship opportunity on just six days&#8217; notice, replacing Usman&#8217;s originally slated opponent Gilbert Burns, who tested positive for COVID-19.<\/p>\n<p>Masvidal ultimately lost this fight by unanimous decision, but performed quite well considering the lack of time he had to prepare. The UFC 251 card also clocked in as the most successful UFC pay-per-view since late 2018, which reaffirmed Masvidal&#8217;s status as one of the promotion&#8217;s biggest stars.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UFC welterweight contender and MMA superstar Jorge Masvidal has shared the tentative timeframe for his next trip to the Octagon.
