Masvidal is one of the UFC guys who could beat Jake even if hes naturally smaller and out his prime aslong as he comes in shape

[@julianhernandez6457]

I think Ben would have beat Masvidal if he wasn’t for that flying knee. It’s crazy how one fighter went in direction to the top and the other retired.

[@seanmatthewking]

Ben was always planning to retire after a few fights in UFC, because he was already ready to retire when they brought him in. The only difference is we would have seen Askren vs Usman instead of Maia. If Askren lost to Usman (which would be probable), he would have still likely retired.

[@DanThemes]

Same would have happened to Leon Edwards if he didn't get that Hail Mary kick. He was dominated in that fight until that moment, and probably would not have gotten another title shot anytime soon.

[@THEDOGFATHERL11]

​@@DanThemesaltitude and leon still won out of the 13 rounds they have spent in the cage leon has won more rounds than usman and won 2 out of the 3 fights

[@riseofazrael]

[@hungryforlunch]

Masvidals luckiest moment of his life

[@LJ-MMA]

​@hungryforlunch not really he prepared for it that exact moment, he's also hit and dropped a few ppl with flying knees, luck is just when preparation meets opportunity

[@Hispanicfromanothaplanet]

[@iceman1bentley763]

Why would you want to lose your money

[@user-tz2zz5ij1s]

@@iceman1bentley763 because that knee was a once in a lifetime shot. Masvidal sucks against grapplers. Jorge had a nice late career run for a bit, but he’s never been top tier at any aspect of MMA. It’s not a knock against Masvidal, amazing game plan that worked. I just don’t see that happening and I’d gladly put my money on Ben anytime vs Masvidal

[@dash4800]

Lmao, he doesn't need ro be a tip tier guy to beat Askren. Askren is garbage and couldn't hang with lower ranked, over the hill UFC fighters. Askren got beat up on the feet by Damien Maia. He should thank God every day he never had to go up against top level guys.

[@user-tz2zz5ij1s]

@@dash4800 You are talking as if Masvidal is in his prime or something. The guy can’t grapple and has slow hands. Both have aged and I’d take the guy that was elite at one time over the guy that’s never been elite. It’s cool that you bought into all the hype UFC gave him. It’s cute actually.
