Masvidal Wants to Continue His Boxing Career
Masvidal is clearly focused on making the most of this new opportunity in boxing, with this bout being his first venture into boxing since a 2006 victory over Joseph Benjamin. Diaz, with a decorated UFC career, had his first boxing fight against Jake Paul, where he was dropped and defeated by unanimous decision, with the judges scorecards reading 97-92 and 98-91 x 2.
Masvidal spoke about his boxing career while appearing on the Michael Bisping Podcast: “I want to get the biggest fights possible.”
