Jorge Masvidal vows to break Colby Covington’s ‘f***ing jaw’ if he sees rival ‘out in the streets’ after UFC 272 loss
JORGE MASVIDAL vowed to break Colby Covington’s ‘f***ing jaw’ if he saw him ‘out in the streets’ following defeat at UFC 272.
Masvidal conceded bragging rights to his former friend-turned bitter rival with a points loss over five rounds in Las Vegas.

The grudge match clearly failed to resolve their feud with the pair continuing the verbal warfare after the fight.
Masvidal warned: “It just sucks because this idiot talked about my kids.
“He’s still somebody, if I see him out in the streets, I’m going to give him everything I’ve got to break his f***ing jaw.
“He’s a b***h. The b***h can wrestle, though. To lose to a b***h like that, obviously no one wants to lose to a coward like that. It just sucks, man.”
Covington, 34, largely dominated the bout with periods of sustained pressure and superior grappling exchanges.
But Masvidal, 37, had his moment in round four after a counter right hook momentarily dropped his ex-training partner.

It was an opportunity wasted as the welterweight failed to follow it up, fearing he would get taken down in the process.
Masvidal said: “I didn’t pounce after I dropped him.
“I wasn’t surprised that he bounced up. I was just surprised that I didn’t go and take his head off.
“I thought he was going to shoot immediately on me, so I was just thinking of wrong s*** instead of just going to take his head off.
“I was tired. He was tired and hurt. That was my chance right there.
“That was that window of like five or six seconds to give it all I’ve got and make a sprint and make a big change.
“Maybe I could have made that round 10-8, 10-7, who knows but I didn’t take that opening.”
