This is what Masvidal told Little Giant Boxing via MMA Mania

“I say this with all respect: If I go into his sport, I have nothing to do there and I think the same about boxing – if (MMA fighters) come into boxing, they have nothing to do here. But looking at it from a business standpoint, it is attractive, but it’s not a challenge for me, so it’s not my priority.”
