Jorge Masvidal responded to Colby Covington's challenge with a sharp joke on social media. Covington after his loss to Kamar Usman named names of fighters he would like to face in his next fight. Jorge Masvidal was among them. The Cuban did not directly respond to Colby's challenge but wrote the following post:
"2021-2022 prediction: Colby burns MMA master like he has every gym and every coach he ever had by not paying and talking shit on the way out. Rinse wash repeat," Masvidal wrote on his Twitter.
