It seems the allure of combat sports is too strong for Jorge Masvidal to resist, even in retirement. The former BMF champion, known for his explosive fighting style and remarkable knockout victories, has expressed a keen interest in stepping back into the ring for a rematch with his old foe, Ben Askren. Following his retirement from the UFC after a four-fight losing streak, Masvidal has focused on Gamebred Bareknuckle MMA. However, the 38-year-old fighter has hinted that a return to striking arts like boxing would be more tempting, especially if it means facing someone he has a history with. In a recent interview with TMZ Sports, Masvidal revealed: "I don't plan on fighting anybody any time soon, but maybe like in a boxing match, I'd come out and just smack Nate [Diaz] up later on in life or something like that. Maybe me and Jake [Paul], something in the future, I don't know, man. But as of right now, I'm just doing the promoting thing." But it's the prospect of a rematch with Ben Askren that has caught Masvidal's attention. Their first encounter at UFC 239 saw Masvidal deliver a jaw-dropping flying knee, setting a record for the fastest knockout in UFC history. Askren, who had an undefeated 20-fight career before that bout, still feels the sting of that defeat and has expressed his desire to return for a rematch. "I heard Ben Askren said he'd come out of retirement to fight me," Masvidal remarked. "I was like, 'This dude...' He wanted MMA but for his sake, I'd do boxing [if I were him] so I can't knee him in the face, it's illegal. Duh. Come on, man (laughs)." Unwilling to miss the opportunity for some verbal sparring, Masvidal teased Askren about his boxing skills, stating: "Hey, Ben. I'll beat your ass with both hands behind my back. Ben's so bad at boxing. He's the one that said it. Look, Ben, I'll only give you the rematch in boxing, motherf*****. People will tune in because I can't knee him in the face, right? Maybe Ben can 'get his way now.' Hey, Ben, kiss my ass, you coming out of retirement. I'll send you right back into it, motherf*****. This guy, bro. They shouldn't have shown me that comment, you corny motherf*****." As the banter heats up, fight fans can't help but get excited at the prospect of a boxing rematch between these two fierce competitors. While Masvidal may have retired from MMA, it seems that the fire to compete still burns brightly within him, especially if it means settling an old score with a certain "corny" opponent. Only time will tell if this rematch becomes a reality, but one thing is for sure – it would undoubtedly be a blockbuster showdown.

In a sizzling showdown set to ignite the middleweight division, Derek Brunson and Roman Dolidze are primed to go head-to-head at UFC 295. As the title picture remains under the control of the formidable champion, Israel Adesanya, the contenders are vying for a chance to claim the spotlight and earn a coveted title shot. According to a recent report from Giorgi Kokiashvili, UFC 295 will see the fierce encounter between Derek Brunson and Roman Dolidze take place at the iconic Madison Square Garden in New York City. However, fight fans eagerly await the confirmation if this showdown will make it onto the main card, further adding to the anticipation surrounding the event. Derek Brunson, no stranger to the Octagon, will be seeking redemption after experiencing back-to-back losses. In March of this year, he suffered defeat at the hands of Dricus du Plessis, following a prior loss to Jared Cannonier over a year ago. Undeterred by these setbacks, Brunson remains resolute in his quest for middleweight supremacy. On the other side of the cage, Roman Dolidze is eager to bounce back after a unanimous decision loss to Marvin Vettori at UFC 286, a mere two weeks after Brunson's defeat. Hungry to reestablish himself as a force to be reckoned with in the division, Dolidze is determined to seize this opportunity and return to his winning ways. With both athletes acutely aware that this could be their last chance to stake a claim in the 185-pound division, the stakes are higher than ever before. Neither competitor is willing to contemplate retiring or leaving the UFC on a sour note. Instead, they are focused on delivering a performance that will propel them toward the title shot they so ardently desire. As the action unfolds at UFC 295, the ever-watchful Israel Adesanya will be keenly observing the outcome. While the champion may not be overly concerned about the victor just yet, the determination of Brunson and Dolidze could spark a new challenge for the throne.

Pat Miletich is a legend of MMA and a UFC Hall of Famer. He was the first ever UFC welterweight champion and defended his belt five times. He also founded the famous Miletich Fighting Systems, which produced many champions and stars such as Matt Hughes, Robbie Lawler, Tim Sylvia, and Jens Pulver. He retired from MMA in 2008 after a submission win over Thomas Denny at Adrenaline MMA 2. Mike Jackson is a former boxer and kickboxer who transitioned to MMA in 2014. He has only four professional MMA fights, all of them in the UFC. He lost his debut to Mickey Gall, who then went on to face CM Punk in his first MMA fight. Jackson then fought CM Punk himself at UFC 225 and won by unanimous decision, but the result was overturned due to a positive test for marijuana. He returned to the Octagon in June 2021 and won by disqualification when he was poked in the eye by Dean Barry. He was released from the UFC after a knockout loss to Pete Rodriguez in October 2021. Now, these two fighters are set to face each other in an MMA bout at Caged Aggression 36 in Iowa on October 14, 2023. The matchup is one of the most bizarre and unexpected ones in recent memory, as it pits a 55-year-old legend against a 38-year-old journeyman with a 1-3 record. How did this fight come about? According to Jackson, it all started when he had a viral run-in with Jake Shields at Submission Underground 25 in July 2021. Jackson was commentating for the event and Shields was competing in a grappling match against Carlos Condit. After Shields won by heel hook, he confronted Jackson on the mic and accused him of talking trash about him on social media. Jackson denied it and said he was just joking around. Apparently, this incident caught the attention of Miletich, who is a friend and former teammate of Shields. Miletich started sending messages to Jackson on Instagram, challenging him to a fight. Jackson initially ignored him, thinking he was just trolling, but Miletich persisted and even contacted Caged Aggression promoter Mike Goodwin to set up the fight. Jackson eventually agreed to the fight, saying he was curious to see what Miletich had left in the tank. What can we expect from this fight? It’s hard to say, as both fighters have been inactive for a long time and have very different levels of experience and skill. Miletich has not fought in MMA for 15 years and has only competed once since then, in a kickboxing match against Michael Nunn in 2019. He is also dealing with some legal issues, as he was arrested for driving under the influence in January 2021. On the other hand, Jackson has fought more recently, but has not shown much success or improvement in his MMA career. He is also known for his antics and trash talk, which could either motivate or annoy Miletich. The fight will likely be a spectacle rather than a technical display of MMA. It could end quickly or drag on for three rounds. It could be entertaining or boring. It could be respectful or heated. It could be anything, really. But one thing is certain: it will be one of the most unique and intriguing matchups in MMA history.

Tom Aspinall is a man on a mission. The British heavyweight contender has been making waves in the UFC with his impressive performances and knockout power. He has won all four of his UFC fights by stoppage, including his latest victory over Marcin Tybura at UFC London. He is now ranked #5 in the official UFC heavyweight rankings and has his sights set on the title. Aspinall is not shy about his ambitions. He believes he will be the one to end Jon Jones’ reign as the heavyweight champion by this time next year. He also wants to face the winner of Ciryl Gane vs. Serghei Spivac, who are scheduled to fight in France later this year. Aspinall thinks he has what it takes to beat anyone in the division and become the best in the world. What makes Aspinall so confident? He says that his time off due to an injury last year helped him realize his true potential and his hunger for greatness. He says he no longer suffers from imposter syndrome and is ready to go after what he wants. He says he is still a nice person, but he is also ruthless when it comes to his career. Aspinall has been training in MMA since he was a child. He comes from a family of fighters and has a background in boxing, wrestling, and jiu-jitsu. He is also a black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu under Nick Gregoriades, who is a student of Roger Gracie. Aspinall is not only a powerful striker, but also a skilled grappler who can finish fights on the ground.

Although there are some talented competitors in the bantamweight division, Naoya Inoue wasn't particularly drawn to any of them. The 30-year-old Japanese native easily defeated his rivals there, barely breaking a sweat in the process. The stars of pound-for-pound are currently most pleased with a recent accomplishment. Inoue, who already owned the IBF, WBA, and WBC bantamweight titles, plucked the last piece of his unchallenged jigsaw from Paul Butler's corpse in the final month of the year. No one was left to fight, and more significantly, there was nothing left to win. Inoue decided to jump up in weight and shamelessly challenge Stephen Fulton, who is perhaps the best super bantamweight in the world, because he was looking for fresh challenges. In the end, it took Inoue about four years to amass every significant world title at 118 pounds. He's pleased that he did it, but he's frustrated by how long it took Inoue to accomplish his objective. The Japanese megastar aspires to speed up the process this time around as he seeks to repeat his unchallenged status four pounds north. “I want to be undisputed champion by the end of the year,” said Inoue to Top Rank Boxing. Despite his continued ambition, Inoue isn't trying to run before he can walk. Fulton will formally challenge Inoue on Tuesday morning in his native Japan, putting his WBO and WBC super bantamweight belts on the line. Even if Inoue manages to steal Fulton's titles, he will still fall short of his targets by two titles. Marlon Tapales is presently holding those belts captive. Ironically, the 31-year-old has already stamped his passport, boarded a plane, and is sitting ringside with the hopes of challenging the victor. It takes a long time and a lot of effort to amass all of the major world titles in a certain weight class. However, Inoue's only wish is to be able to quicken that tedious task.
