Jorge Masvidal and Kamaru Usman might fight to bring UFC 249 back from the brink of uncertainty.
The headliner card between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Tony Ferguson stands on shaky ground, as the former is currently “stuck” in Russia.
A fight between Kamaru and Masvidal has been in the offing for quite some time now. Now might just be the moment for UFC to make the bout a reality.
Khabib’s statement regarding his inability to attend UFC 249 sparked a row, and minutes later, Masvidal took to Twitter to tell UFC that he is willing to fight on 18 April.
