This man has zero fear..Huge respect..19 years old brawling much bigger older men looking like prison eacapees

[@JulyG789]

Masvidal is too underrated they need to promote him more he's a talented fighter

[@treroney4720]

July G He just lost 2 fights that would've gotten him a title shot. He's a Diaz or Cerrone type of fighter. Very good, just not championship caliber

[@racilyn]

@@treroney4720 Oh yea?

[@masseymohammad6034]

Tre' Roney bmf

[@DubSalvation]

@@treroney4720 that didnt age well

[@treroney4720]

H Naseem You’re right. I was wrong about him. I didn’t know his grappling was that legit

[@Matedogswe]

wow...was watching the street fights with jorge vs ray, this guy is a really good fighter!

[@HappyGaming11]

i love it when videos don't reach my sub box.

[@karan6]

Dark horse of the Lightweight Division right here

[@lefthook6804]

My favourite lightweight fighter he is so slick and so freakin underrated.

[@mcfreeagent]

mad respect for his focus and professionalism.

[@DjLaserShark]

Not watching tape on Iaquinta seems like really bad idea considering he's really underrated in the rankings.

[@ssrider7]

Masvidal & Diaz bros forever!

[@fucdalaw1]

Dana white dont know rhe kind of money this kid can bring in from his street fighting days with all of us south floridians. Promote this kid dana. If he wins this fight and gets no love from the ufc thats a shame. South florida will bring some noise for jorge. Guaranteed. I love conor but in a way now the way the ufc has thrown almost all their chips in this guy. Im starting to lean towards aldo. I was rooting for mcgregor. But the disrespect from the ufc and mcgregor is becoming distasteful.

[@jamriangjindawed2734]

You got that right, that joker is going to receive an as wiping from Aldo, and rightfully so after all the shit he has been talking. Love to see him start his 155 career vs Jorge, for another ass wiping_show the idiot what boxing is all about.

[@fucdalaw1]

Jamriang Jindawed idk about that bubba. I dont like whats going on but hes national champion boxer. Hes a phenomenal striker. Not saying hed beat masdival. But im sure my fellow 305 dude would work the clinch and try to get his back on the just ready to see it.|mats.

[@fucdalaw1]

***** im a dirhard south floridian and masvidal is one of the fighters i always pull for. Fans can say what they want jorge lost that fight. He won the 1st and i thought he was losing the first til he rocked al. And then he came out and didnt fight in the 2nd and especially the 3rd. I was pissed yelling at me thru the tv. Lol. Saying. What the fuck u standing around for? Al was the smaller less experienced fighter. But he was the one putting the pressure and landed numerous right hands and nasty low kicks. While jorge kept on with his unprofessional over confident antics. Just stop that fucking shit and go in and fight just like al did. Just cuz u hurt a guy in a round that could have been a draw. U dont win the fucking fight. He embarrassed us fighters from sourh florida. Wtf are u duin homie? Get in there and fuckin get after it and win in dominate fashion. Dont go in there and work less then ur opponent and expect a fuckin win. Im glad al got the decision cuz all jorge did was piss me off. Dont these guys realize acting like the diaz brothers gets u no where? In the 3rd while he was running running and running al stoped in the center of the cage and threw his hands up like fught homeboy what the fuck are we duin playing ballerina? And best fucking believe the judges seen that and they dont like fighters that wont engage. U lost cage control for the round instantly and being the less active fighter in the match while acting cocky u better knock him down in every rd. Jorge luv ya. But u lost. U won the first could have been a 10 8 rd. And maybe a draw. But u lost rd 2 and 3 for sure homeboy. Start fighting or fucking retire. Its gotta be personally embarrassing when he goes back and watches the fight. Anybody that know fighting knows specially in mma. Dont coast ur way to victory becuz it will lead u to defeat just like it did.

[@fucdalaw1]

samjs721 I'm telling you I totally agree it bothers me because I am a fan of his and I have friends that train with him. Bounced around from FFA to ATT. He also trained a little bit at evolution off season training which I have two good friends that train there Wesley Cantillo and Josh mercado Josh was actually on the same show as Mike Rio. They didnt make it. But they are still grinding. Hope he rebounds

[@fucdalaw1]

***** im tellin u bubba. Hes did that shit alot even before he came to the ufc. I still remeber him fighting a guy he thought he was gonna dominate and buddy submitted him with the choke of the yr in all mma. Did u see that fight? Off top of my head i dont remember the other fighters name. He was a solid fighter but was supposely outmatched and he highlight reel choked masvidal out. As a jiujitsu competitor i had to clap to that submission.

[@MLYJ10L]

[@Phospion]

JORGE VS CONOR MOTHERFUCKERS, BEST FIGHT EVER

[@mmanut]

Hoping Jorge wins this fight. He has never gotten a great shake in the UFC. He is the real deal, true fighter that whoops ass.

[@savag3mma420]

mmanut everyone knows who he is now. Lets get Jorge vs Nick Diaz ffs

[@lecossio10]

Peruvian / Cuban own

[@rolo2sexy820]

that iaquinta fight was highway robbery

[@kevierfontanez8783]

ugh masvidal got robbed bad in this fight. hopefully that doesn't happen against cowboy.

[@K131399]

amazing the disrespect iaquinta is getting. have any of these people seen him fight lately? gonna be almost funny to watch jorge' face early in the fight when it registers that al is on his level and maybe above it lol

[@mlb-yt]

yeah Iaquinta looked like he improved greatly in his last two fights. Honestly can't tell who will win this one.

[@K131399]

M Baas maybe there's just too many fights these days but i have no memory of jorge being someone that should be pissed off to be fighting al. al's looked like a killer last few times out

[@winstondidit5843]

M Baas iaquinta definitely lost this fight with masvidol, this was hands down - the worst u.f.c. decision I've ever seen, I had it 30-27 (2) rounds for masvidol, I suspect this was a kinda "good ole boy" decision becouse al iaquinta had ray longo and matt serra in his corner and they probably know the 2 out of the 3 judges that voted for iaquinta, but I cant wait to see dana deushbags decision on this matter, hopefully masvidol receives the same pay as iaquinta

[@K131399]

i thought al won the 3rd outright and the second was close. jorge' round one was more dominant than al' round 3 so its hard to say al won but masvidal learned a valuable lesson to never glide.

[@techcheck5019]

What genius thought it was smart to film in interlaced and upload that to youtube? Seriously don't these people know even the basics about video who film and put these videos up. It's ridiculous, even the UFC has so many audio screw ups it's a joke. What cheap ass people are you hiring? Even for MMAFighting.com (who filmed this video) you guys need to get someone who at least knows to film in progressive mode if you are going to upload it to YT. Or at least if you want to film in interlaced then at least deinterlace the video before uploading it.

[@blaze556922]

Al did not win that fight

[@Shoazda1]

poor guy got robbed big time

[@therealmohammad]

Masvidal is losing his chin slowly but surely
