[@Cjgkslsmvtkoesnxbs]

Even if he’s lying about everything else in this interview he’s 100% correct about him finding a better team. Not that ATT isn’t top tier, it is, but the focus hes getting from talented coaches is evident in his last 2 fights. It’s hard to say the same for Jorge

[@simplemoney1833]

Def don’t think he quit either.

[@akilbrazier1421]

Well because ATT is such a huge gym. I hear it’s a huge facility itself and plus they have the largest roster of ufc fighters out of any other gym in the nation by far. At MMA Masters he gets more one on one training with the coaches and the schedules probably aren’t as busy and difficult. Signed to the ufc are only him, Miguel Baeza, and like one other guy I think. The rest are pros in other organizations or amateurs. So I can definitely see how that’s more beneficial.

[@AyJayStyles]

Not really fair for people to keep saying things about Masvidal not looking good recently when the only person he's fought was a future Welterweight GOAT x2 and the first fight he didn't do bad at all showing great defense even though eventually he got tired. The second fight he actually didn't do bad at all and the first round was really good, he just got comfortable and didn't show respect to Usman's striking so he got slept for having his hands down. Its not like he got washed up and embarrassed like Tyron and I'm not gonna judge Jorge or ATT until after this fight. This fight will accurately show where these 2 are since its not Usman they're fighting

His legacy hasn’t even started yet. Yea he lost to Usman once, the second time I think he won 3/5. But I get how biased judges are towards whoever has the belt. We all saw it Izzy vs rob. But Colby isn’t even in his prime yet. This is the start of his run. Usman wearing down from roids it looks like. Colby just gets better and better. It’s impossible for him to lose to somebody like Jorge. Just a warm up match before the winner of burns and kazmat, which will be a great fight. Then that winner will fight Usman unless Usman retires. Colby might not lose ever again.

Everything Jorge says it someone told him something about Colby and never anything Colby did directly to him. If Colby is so bad, he would've done something to him. I feel bad for Jorge because I was almost the one like him who believed the others' words but was lucky my friend was like Colby and confronted me about it and we discussed all the facts then realized it was all made up beef from others talking in our ears.
