Keeping an eye on the delicate moment in his career Jorge masvidal, Michael Bisping analyzed the North American’s commitment to UFC 287. For the commentator, the fighter was worthy of other options and his choice for Gilbert Durinho is the one that poses the most risks to your future in the organization.
“You have to respect Masvidal. He is in a difficult position. A very, very difficult position. Three defeats in a row now in the last three years. It's a dangerous position against Gilbert Burns, because if he doesn't get the win, of course, he'll be on a four-fight losing streak. I respect Masvidal for choosing this fight. He could have made a decision and said, 'No, I want easier matchups.' But he didn't (…) he would be in a position to say to the UFC: 'Hey, I just fought Kamaru twice. I fought against Colby covington. I'm not fighting for the belt in my next fight, so just give me a rung on the ladder,'” Bisping said on his YouTube channel. Youtube.
