“Conor is not always going to be around. Whoever has that belt at the time will always be there. There will always be a 170-pound champion. What is the big deal if this guy that’s been in the sport 16 (expletive) years goes on and gets a paycheck? I’m fighting a (expletive) killer, a two-time champion, a guy that’s a sniper with his left hand – and I’m also going to make a paycheck,” Masvidal said.
“He gets melted,” Masvidal said during an appearance on The Jim Rome Show. “What the world is looking for him is for him to suffer and get chastised for some of the things that he’s done in public.
“Everybody’s going to feel sorry for him after the fight, I can tell you that much. They’ll forgive him all after the fight I can promise you that. This baptism’s gonna be a little extra for Mr. Conor.”
“My journey has been going on 16 years and I want to be handsomely rewarded for it because for a big part of that 16 years there was a lot of instability and money wasn’t coming in, pay checks weren’t coming in,” Masvidal said. “I wouldn’t mind setting up that future for my grandkids. So the fights that you get the biggest zeroes attached to it, that’s the one that we’re going to take.
“Obviously, Conor fight is out there, the Mayweather fight is out there, they’re saying they’re bringing him on over to Zuffa Boxing. The Usman fight is out there. I’m the golden ticket at combat sports, especially at at 170 pounds. You can’t move in that weight class without mentioning me or having to ask permission to the mighty Gamebred. And it’s just the truth. I might come off ignorant and arrogant, but I’ve been working my whole life for this, to get to this position where now I can be involved in the biggest fights possible and I can rewrite the history books. Because whoever has the belt when I’m done with Conor, that’s whose head’s getting chopped off."

No disrespect but he went from adamantly refusing to fight Leon because he didn’t want to be a “stepping stone” to now not only agreeing to fight him but also in home Country where he specifically said he wouldn’t fight
