At UFC 244, Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz competed for the right to be called the “Baddest Motherfucker (BMF)” champion. After three rounds of high-impact collisions that heavily favored Masvidal, a doctor called the end to the bout due to a bad cut Diaz sustained over his right eye.

Though the fight was most one-sided, Nate Diaz did not appear to be going anywhere and began to show glimpses of building momentum. Diaz would immediately call for a rematch to have a more definitive conclusion, and ever the competitor, Jorge Masvidal was more than willing to run it back with Diaz in the future.
