chilz - Masvidal saying Ben talked all this trash pre-fight was something he made up in his head to hype himself up for this fight. Which as it turns out was a great strategy for him. Other than that Ben didn't say much of anything out of the ordinary.
Ive always been a Masvidal fan. Still am. As well as a fan of Ben. I looked at as 2 guys promoting the fight. Ben trash talk wasn't anything attacking race religion culture. Only thing I can think of that might have got Jorge so heated. Was Ben insinuating that he was afraid to fight him on Twitter. I notice a narrative being created by media. When does trash talk go to far tieing inthe Conor Khabib situation. Their painting it as 2 white fighters attacking race religion culture. When Conor Nor Ben attacked race religion or culture. Joey Diaz made a post on a Masvidal tweet saying fuck the white privilege. Which I thought was kinda weird. I've always enjoyed MMA because it brings everybody together. Doesnt matter what race culture somebodies from the fans appreciate the fighters.

Is there an example anywhere of Ben actually being an asshole to Masvidal?
This video of course is average barely-there trash talk. I still don’t get what justification Masvidal had for being so pissed off at Ben.
Ben did his fair share to stir the pot - talked about how they trained together and Jorge was nothing to worry about…how Jorge is low IQ…
It was a classic greaser vs social matchup
Many of the people on this forum don't realize the fighters are just building up the fight in advance by bullshitting.Total marks.
Of course people are excusing it when one fighter does it but jumping on it when the other does. They fell for the routine. It’s just who they wanted to win.

Gee I’ve only seen that angle 75 times. “I used to train with him and he was nothing”. If he didn’t say that it would have been poor work performance in building the fight.

Did you notice that every time it happened people shit on the person who said it because what takes place in training is supposed to be sacred…? Seems like you missed that aspect of it…somehow…
