We believe the odds are actually a little closer then expected for this potential match-up, both fighters have a mixed record of multiple wins and losses. Most of Masvidal’s losses have come by way of split decision, that’s until recently.
In the past year he’s knockout out Darren Till in London, then pulled off one of the best knockouts ever with a flying-knee to Ben Askren. If Diaz can make it into a dog fight as he has done recently, then Masvidal could be under pressure. Let’s hope the UFC make this fight official soon!
