It seems like a long time ago when Jorge Masvidal and Leon Edwards had a backstage altercation that led to Masvidal’s famous words, “I gave him the three-piece with the soda.” Despite the incident taking place more than five years ago, the ongoing feud between Masvidal and Edwards remains a hot topic.
Masvidal asserts that he was willing to fight Edwards, but Edwards turned down the opportunity. Now, with Masvidal gearing up for a UFC comeback and Edwards in search of an opponent following the loss of his welterweight title, talks about a potential showdown between the two are circulating.
Masvidal is ready to square off against Edwards and is keen on settling their unresolved issues once and for all. He has thrown down the gauntlet to Edwards and indicated his preparedness to face him, proposing a potential fight date.
On the other hand, Edwards has been out of action since his defeat to Belal Muhammad in July, but there are hints of his return before the year’s end. Masvidal commended Muhammad for his performance in the fight, recognizing his progress and path to becoming the new UFC welterweight champion.
