Former UFC star rejects potential offer to fight KSI

Former UFC star rejects potential offer to fight KSIDAZN

Former UFC welterweight title challenger Jorge Masvidal has shut down any interest of facing KSI inside a boxing a ring. 

Masvidal retired from MMA last April following a loss to Gilbert Burns, but he has frequently shown interest in venturing into the world of professional boxing. 

However, while there maybe problems in the negotiations for a fight between KSI and Tommy Fury, do not expect Masvidal to be stepping into the squared circle with the British entertainment star. 

’l'll be honest with you, I don’t think that dude would ever take the fight,” Jorge Masvidal told The MMA Hour.

“Are you kidding me? Hell no bro, are you kidding me?… That dude’s not trying to die on TV, he’s not. He’s fighting other dudes and he’s barely surviving, you think he’s going to get in there with me?

“What does this guy do for a living? Like I said, [with] the fights that I want, this guy’s been here for two, three, four, or five years, come over [to MMA], please.

"Wait, that’s the dude throwing elbows in boxing right? That dude’s wilding out but that guy doesn’t want to die. He would hit me with that elbow, and I’d just wink at him, like you’re dead."
