The famous MMA fighter Jorge Masvidal turned to Ben Askren, offering him a rematch according to the rules of boxing.

“I have always liked boxing, and I have never hidden that I want to compete in the ring. For the sake of this, I am ready to return to the sport. I heard rumors that Askren wanted to put on gloves again in order to take revenge from me. For the sake of your health, I do not want to fight in MMA, as the ban on knees to the head will help you a lot. Ben, I will put both hands behind my back, but I will still beat you,” Jorge said.

Recall that Masvidal and Askren met at one of the UFC tournaments, and then Jorge knocked out Ben in 5 seconds.
