Jorge Masvidal is known as 'Street Jesus' due to his looks and street/backyard fighting history. Former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping has now recalled a nightclub showdown involving Masvidal that further signifies why he got the nickname in the first place.
This is not the first time we have heard of this incident. Another former fighter and current ESPN analyst, Chael Sonnen, has already spoken about 'Gamebred' knocking out three people who he thought were going to rob him.
Speaking on his own YouTube channel, Bisping claimed that Jorge Masvidal told him the full robbery story when they shared a cab ride together.
"We shared a taxi to the airport. When we were in there, we were talking about China. I'd just been knocked out by Kelvin Gastelum and Masvidal was there and he said he went into the [nightclub's] toilet. Some guy kind of flicked his chain and looked at it. He kind of felt like they were going to rob him. So they said something, he just went bang, knocked the pair of them out. Then the third guy walked into the toilet and he wasn't sure whether he was with them or not. But he couldn't take that chance, bang and he knocks him out as well... That's what I'm saying, Masvidal is a no-nonsense character."
