The Tragic DOWNFALL Of Jorge Masvidal

[@TheFightingBusiness]

Resurrection Pt 2 or The End at UFC 287?

[@the_auditor1017]

Def the end

[@AltezzaGang15]

Gilbert is a stylistic nightmare for him, as he’s very good at wrestling and actually presents a submission threat unlike his last 2 opponents as a 2 time world champion in BJJ. But of course, that’s not his only problem to look at in him as his striking has always been very good. Burns by sub and Masvidal leaves.

[@somdutroy]

Give Jorge Till and Nate again, we will again see a "resurrection". It is not a coincidence that he started losing as the competition got harder. Jorge is who he is, a level below the championship level, no amount of rebranding will change that.

[@bon_grippah]

can only get resurrected once

[@dariensantiago909]

Eye carus or Icarus?? Great promo as always brother! Hope to see Gamebred get a big win then fight Leon in London. But Durinho is a problem! Him going five wit Khamzat should tell me enough already.

[@sallgoodman2323]

Nothing tragic...the game is the game. Jorge made it to a level where many only dream of, but it lasts only so long.

[@DaileyShorts]

Anyone that thinks Jorge is overrated knows nothing about fighting. W-L record only tells a fraction of the story

[@RockyTerrintino]

Mas is a great fight but we honestly did overvalue his wins against till,nate and, Ben. None of those wins deserve a guaranteed shot at 5th ranked guy

I disagree yes the game is the game BUT you last so long as you don’t self destruct, masvidal self destruct himself just like Conner, he wasn’t able to hold his ego down

Nothing was tragic. He gave us 20 years of fights. Fighters barely reach 5. He gave us great moments and retiring with a positive record.

No tragedy at all, my man's a success story if I've ever seen one. No shame in losing a few to best in the world. Life has its ups and downs. Coming up from brawling in backyards to being a multi millionaire ain't too shabby, brato. Count your blessings.

[@dollarduke5430]

Honestly man nobody stays at the top of the ufc food chain for long I don’t understand how losing 2 fights when your 38 years old is considered a “tragic downfall” seems like Jorge pinched a lot of these fans nerves

​@Dollar Duke it's his popularity that's the downfall not so much the losses. He was never a top 5 just a fan favorite

[@alejandropeca7515]

Pretty much on point 👏 glad to see that part of MMA fans are humans with brains.

[@davemccombs]

It's a tragedy that it culminated in his assaulting someone and losing every bit of his future from here? Fuck that "it's been fun shit," people can usually improve. And from assault/losing your fans when the UFC was literally inventing belts for you? That's a big one

[@bovineintervention276]

Doesn't matter who he lost to matters how he cared himself and how his journey ended. His down was infinitely worse than his up which is a tragic downfall. Just stop coping

So his downfall was that he is not as talented as the best in his division? Masvidal at his best was always levels below championship level. I don't see this as a downfall, more like a level check.

[@OhKee12]

People seem to think everyone has to be a champ to be talented. They often forgot it’s the good/great fighters that make the UFC run. Very few become champs.

[@jamesdjl4359]

​@@OhKee12 There is an interesting bit of social commentary in this. If you don't make 100k a year you're a bum, if you're not in peak physical condition year round then you're seen as unimpressive, if you don't have multiple degrees and 150 IQ then you're unintelligent, and so on. Most people will fall within the middle of any bell curve. Yet, the "social media" era has us all hyperfocused on the upper echelon in all categories. As a consequence the average or above average people are often undervalued.

[@johnmorales6281]

Personally I feel like Jorge is immune to "The Fall" as the man has been trying to rise since 2003

[@RockyTerrintino]

He’s risen since then, look how SUCCESSFUL he’s become. Sure, maybe he’s lost a few fights, we all lose, in life, he’s on top of the world. I like both guys but Jorge on 🔝 ᴏғ ᴛʜᴇ 🌎

[@johnmorales6281]

@ROCKY I mean for all intents and purposesays jorge was not supposed to be here....I remember in the KZbin days seeing his 2 fights with Ray and my first time seeing him fight was that the Strikeforce Playboy mansion card. He was a crowd favorite mid carder for a majority of his career....yeah he would challenge for the Strikeforce belt at one point but he was still destined for mid card for life. Fans like me always hoping he got a chance Then our time came almost came in 2017 when he fought Damein Maia in a title eliminator...then another 2 years he walks aways for a year and a half and KOs Till and then out of no where his time for Super Stardom came in 5 seconds.

Man has received some of the biggest paychecks while not having the belt he’ll be alright

[@AltezzaGang15]

There was never a rise to begin with. He won 3 fights vs an old, mid tier Nate Diaz, an eventual roster cut in Ben Askren and having notched his only real impressive win in Darren Till (who was looking good at the time) isn’t really a rise worth noting. He was never championship caliber and Kamaru Usman showed us exactly why on separate occasions. This isn’t an attack on him either, I’m just pointing out why I believe he’s overrated.

[@alwaysrecycles365]

That Ben Askren knockout gave his stock a huge boost, but look at the rest of his fights...he has not shown much since 2017

You may want to watch the 5th round of Nate v Leon Edwards bc he nearly slept Leon and that was after 4 hard rounds. Leon is the champ and Nate went the distance with him...but you think Nate had zero chance of beating Masvidal after 3 rounds and a doctor stoppage? 3 rounds is only 60% of the fight and Nate looked very ready to continue against Jorge so I don't think there was a definitive winner at all.

Colby also got beat twice. That weight class is just stacked with the best. Even usman lost twice now. It’s crazy 😅

[@eetfuk3571]

the thing is, Colby doesn't look like he's affected badly to his two losses against Usman because of how he performed in both fights and it seems that only father time can beat Covington. Usman's shot knees, extreme weight cutting, and fighters who are already ready for his style finally caught up to Usman. Covington seems to improve day by day and he's not cutting a lot of weight.

[@NickMac-cb1vr]

It’s crazy how Joe watched some of Jorge’s early fights and then wants to act like if he was around during gsps era he would be a problem for everyone. Cuz he was around then and he was nothing more than a journeyman.

Masvidal used to be one of my favorite fighters. He hated trashtalk and came out to starch fools. I've liked him since he broke Jake Ellenburger and I called the Cowboy fight over my friend who had been a longer MMA fan than me at the time. It felt good to be right, but I loved that fight. I hate to say it, but Ben Askren ruined his career. Before you say it, yes I'm aware that he launched into superstardom and made HUGE bank. However, I meant it ruined his career in terms of mentality, being honest with himself and his skills, and worse he started to trashtalk more than anyone else. He became the very thing he hated. Now, he's becoming what his critics and rivals call him. A loud mouthed, delusional journeyman. Gilbert and RDA are the real "BMFs".

I shed a tear this weekend, not because he lost, but because he steps away from something he dearly loved and because I will never see him compete again.

Idk if it’s really a downfall tbh, up until 2019 he was pretty much always a mid card fighter. Expectations just went crazy for him after he killed Askren in like 3 seconds. Probably could make a case for the classic game cover curse tho as he’s 1-4 since UFC 4 released lol. Also seems fair to point out him being nearly 40, he’s far past his prime, so a string of losses before his eventual retirement is sadly the norm for most.
