The UFC ’˜BMF’ Champion Jorge Masvidal recently spoke to iFL TV and indicated that he plans on returning to the octagon in either August or September of this year. Although Masvidal confirmed that UFC is in his near future, he indicated that boxing is something he does want to transition into.
With that in mind, iFL TV asked Masvidal about the current boxing P4P king Canelo Alvarez. Jorge Masvidal was on hand to call Canelo’s fight this past Saturday and he spoke about how the Super Middleweight dominated his opponent, Anvi Yildirim.
‘I love to see the disparity” Masvidal began. “The great vast difference between the number one and everybody else. Truly, Canelo is the pound-for-pound guy right now. Offense is looking insane. The defense looks great. And the way he’s getting his timing and distance? Ridiculous. I knew it was going to be a blowout, but I didn’t think it was going to be like that.”

‘After round one he was just pot shotting him to death,’ Masvidal continued. ‘It was just interesting to see what he can do to a number one contender so easily. Brings up the question: who can challenge this dude at 165 pounds? Because I truly feel it’s his weight right here. I don’t see nobody at 165.’
Jorge Masvidal finished by not actually ruling out a boxing match against Canelo. ‘Later on one of the commentators brought up maybe us boxing in the future and that’s definitely a possibility. We can definitely cross promote. But I’m here as a fan. I wasn’t here to call out Canelo or anything like that. I’m just a fan of the man, I love what he does, I love boxing, it’s simple.”
