Masvidal was scheduled to fight Leon Edwards at UFC 269 but unfortunately had to drop out of the fight due to an undisclosed injury. McGregor was on one of his Twitter tangents talking about his accomplishments when he decided to take aim at Masvidal as well. McGregor was describing how Nov. 12th was such a historic day in the UFC world.

Nov. 12th marks five years since Conor McGregor made history by being the first fighter to hold two belts at the same time. It also is the same day that the inaugural UFC event was held.

McGregor also pointed out that it is also Jorge Masvidal’s birthday, in a way not many would enjoy being told “happy birthday”.

Hoe in a housecoat. The fuck was that about as well? Last seasons Versace house coat hahaha wtf!” McGregor posted on his Twitter.

Masvidal doesn’t have a time frame for his return as of now, but it seems as if a fight with Edwards is in the rearview mirror. Edwards is already looking towards welterweight champion Kamaru Usman. Masvidal may have another grudge match to settle in his future with his former roommate, Colby Covington.

As for McGregor, he has a lot of options to choose from when he returns from his injury. Masvidal may be another fight he looks at in the future, as both of them have a very exciting style of fighting.
