Masvidal To Welterweight, Faces Vitor Belfort Protege In July

Jorge Masvidal got his wish as his next fight looks to be taking place in the welterweight division. “Gamebred” is set to square off against Cezar Ferreira at the “Ultimate Fighter Season 21 Finale” in Florida, says MMAFighting.

Masvidal is looking to make a less controversial return to the octagon after his last performance against Al Iaquinta at UFC Fight Night: Mendes vs. Lamas early on in April. Despite most of the media and fans scoring the fight in favor of Masvial, Iaquinta was rewarded the decision victory by the judges.
