“I was surprised by the fact that I got poked in the eye in the first round and Dean didn't say anything about it, as if it hadn't happened. If he hadn't hit me in the eyes, I wouldn't have felt like this. Herb Dean is always involved in controversy in every fight he referees. I won’t blame him for the result of the fight, but he’s not my favorite when it comes to better referees,” Masvidal said in a post-event interview.

Jorge masvidal ended up getting even more complicated in the category. Now, the 'Jesus of the Streets' has made three stumbles in a row and has moved away from the chance to return to the top 5 of the welterweight division (up to 77kg), led by the Nigerian and former executioner Kamaru Usman. The North American now has a record of 35 triumphs and 15 setbacks in his career.
