Jorge Masvidal's Post-Fight Press Conference Was Some Of The Most Gangster Shit I've Ever Seen

Not too long after delivering the fastest knockout in UFC history…

…Jorge “Gamebred” Masvidal took to the media to discuss his victory, and what’s next for him, and delivered a performance that rivaled his own in the cage last night.

Fucking unbelievable. From his fucking absurd KO, to his savage ass celebration, to his interview with Joe Rogan, where he responded to the question, “Why the flying knee?” with, “Cause he’s a bum”…

Masvidal did everything right last night, undoubtedly setting himself up for a Welterweight Championship opportunity once Kamaru Usman is healthy, and the best part is – I don’t think there was even a single fraction of a second where he was thinking to himself, “Let me make sure I saw all the right things.” He’s just that real a motherfucking gangster. I mean, fuck, homeboy used to fight in backyards with Kimbo!

(RIP Kimbo, we all miss ya very much)

Oh, and you wanna know what the greatest aspect of the entire fucking thing may be?! The level at which Jorge Masvidal prepared to throw that knee. It wasn’t a fluke, and he didn’t get lucky. He was more confident in that shit than I’ve ever been in anything…

Fucking BANANAS. I’m pretty sure he’s literally never going to let Ben Askren live this down, either. He’s been memeing it up since the second he stepped outta that cage…

At the end of the day, I do believe a lot of this comes down to what Luke Thomas pointed out on Twitter last night:

Ben knows what sells fights, CLEARLY, as this was the most hyped fight of the entire weekend and the “People’s Main Event” thanks to him mostly, but Jorge don’t play that “selling fights” game. You say shit to him, he’s going to take it personally, and make you pay for it, and that’s a man you just don’t wanna fuck with. Not now, not ever.
