Midnight Mania: Unretired!

Welcome to Midnight Mania!

Jorge Masvidal has announced his return with a simple online message – “Gamebred” is back!

In April 2023, the 39-year-old veteran had announced his retirement after experiencing four straight losses, including two title fights against Kamaru Usman. However, Masvidal, known for his explosiveness and conditioning, expressed a desire to return shortly after. He considered various options such as a potential match against Justin Gaethje, a bout with Jake Paul in the boxing ring, and opportunities in bare-knuckle fighting. Additionally, he currently runs his own bare-knuckle MMA promotion named Gamebred FC.

With many lucrative options on the table, it remains to be seen what the “non-retired” athlete will pursue next.
