JORGE MASVIDAL has told Leon Edwards to put up or shut up about settling their feud once and for all.
Welterweight king Edwards has been itching to get his hands on the American for over three years after being assaulted by the former backyard brawler backstage at UFC London.

Rocky recently doubled down on his eagerness to exact his revenge on the UFC’s BMF, although Gamebred isn’t buying what he’s selling.
He told MMA Junkie: “That’s called blah, blah, blah.
“The guy is literally the champion right now.
“If he told Dana White and the UFC he wanted to fight me, the UFC makes it happen like that.
“Why? Because I’m the one that sells the most pay-per-views in that entire division by like four, five times. The numbers are there, proven.
“If he wants the fight, the fight is there for him, but he doesn’t want the fight.
“But what he does want, it’s entertain the idea that he wants the fight.
“He says this, he says that, but man, if you want the fight, you can make it happen.

“You’re the champion, and you feel hurt – and he obviously is, he’s still talking about me – then make the fight happen.
“If I affected you so much as a man that you can’t live your life without thinking about me every day, then make the fight.”
Masvidal and Edwards, 37 and 31 respectively, were scheduled to settle their differences at UFC 269 last December.
But the grudge match fell through when Masvidal suffered a significant rib injury.

Masvidal went on to face former friend turned foe Colby Covington at UFC 272 but suffered a decision defeat to the former title challenger.
Edwards, meanwhile, lock horns with face former pound-for-pound king Kamaru Usman, who he knocked out with a spectacular Hail Mary head kick in the fifth round to become Britain’s second UFC champion.
