Midnight Mania! Ben Askren roasts ‘hypocritical’ Jorge Masvidal, ‘Suck it up buttercup’

Welcome to Midnight Mania!

All anybody can speak about proper now could be Jorge Masvidal’s alleged felony, which landed instantly on the face — extra particularly, the enamel — of Colby Covington. In fact, I write alleged, however when Masvidal and his administration are bragging concerning the act on Twitter, properly … in the words of the great Nathan Diaz, “How u gonna snitch on your self?”

Diaz isn’t the one former “Gamebred” foe questioning Masvidal’s decision-making. Ben Askren additionally engaged Masvidal in a war of words previous to their conflict, which after all ended within the brutal knockout that helped make Masvidal a superstar within the first place. Askren due to this fact has a good bit of perspective on dropping a grudge match, and he isn’t impressed with Masvidal’s response.

Askren attributes Masvidal’s sneak assault to “anger/insecurity points.” He additionally factors out that Masvidal’s excuse/reasoning that Covington trash talked his household doesn’t maintain water since Masvidal himself has crossed that line too.

“Think about having 25 minutes to punch somebody as many instances as you need legally, however you possibly can’t get it accomplished so that you gotta sneak up on the steak home”

“The couple instances I acquired beat up I simply thought shit that sucked I ought to educated more durable or employed higher ways. Not let me sneak up and assault him on the road bc I’ve anger/insecurity points.”

“Jorge additionally talked about my household so he’s being a hypocritical terd on high of all else. Suck it up butter cup, you bought whipped. It occurs generally.”

Boom, roasted?

Finally, Masvidal might have larger issues than Askren’s Twitter criticism, notably if Covington pursues costs. Both means, the Web is broadly torn between whether or not or not Masvidal’s sucker punch was truthful sport or lame, and the truth that the sufferer was Covington undoubtedly complicates public notion.
