5 potential opponents for Jorge Masvidal after UFC 272 loss

#4. Jorge Masvidal vs. Sean Brady

One of the few fighters in the welterweight top 10 without an opponent booked, Sean Brady could seek to capitalize off of Jorge Masvidal's star power and introduce himself to the masses.

Holding a perfect 15-0 record, Sean Brady has been tearing up the UFC's 170-pound division. The young prospect already has wins over top-level opposition such as Michael Chiesa and Jake Mathews, proving his ability to hang with the very best.

Brady's skillset would no doubt be a nightmare for Masvidal, as he utilizes pressure wrestling paired with a nasty submission game. However, if 'Gamebred' could overcome Brady, then he would reinstate himself back into the elite of the weight class.

#3. Jorge Masvidal vs. Leon Edwards

Everything currently indicates that Leon Edwards will be next to fight for the UFC welterweight title. However, the world of MMA is tumultuous at the best of times. Should 'Rocky' not compete for the belt this summer, be that due to injury or any other reason, then the grudge match with Masvidal is one to make.

Edwards and Masvidal notoriously came to blows behind the scenes at a UFC London event in 2019. Since then, there has been a long-running rivalry between the two men that fans are clamoring to see play out inside the UFC octagon.
