Jorge Masvidal returned from a career-long layoff to deliver one of his most memorable performances when he scored an epic second-round knockout of Darren Till on Saturday at UFC on ESPN+ 5. After going 777 days without a win, Masvidal (33-13 MMA, 10-6 UFC) got back on track in devastating fashion when he dropped and stopped Till (17-2-1 MMA, 5-2-1 UFC) with a nasty fight-ending combination in the welterweight main event at The O2 in London. With the win, “Gamebred” inserts himself in the mix of title contenders at 170 pounds. There are several possible opponents for him next, but given his post-fight altercation with Leon Edwards (17-3 MMA, 9-2 UFC), who won in the co-main event, it seems Masvidal could be lining up to fight his second Brit in a row.
