"I can't stay stuck in the past."
~ Jorge Masvidal
He burst into the scene by his brutal and short knockout of Ben Askren - though Jorge Masvidal has been a fighter for a long time. His first recorded fights were the backyard brawls under the watchful eye of MMA legend Kimbo Slice. Though Masvidal wasn’t one of Kimbo’s boys, the backyard brawler would have been proud of Masvidal nonetheless, because of how far has come.
Street Jesus is one of the most fearsome fighters of his division because of how much energy he carries in the octagon and how much he loves to beat the shit out of his opponents. In fact, he once said that he doesn’t like to leave the octagon with his opponents conscious. He is a man of violence if there ever was one.
About Jorge Masvidal Height
Jorge is listed by UFC at a respectful five feet eleven inches in the official tale of the tapes, though if you compare him to some other MMA fighters, he can look a bit shorter than that.
It is a known fact that UFC increases their fighters' height to make them look more fearsome, intimidating, etc - though it isn't as bad as WWE where a 5'10" wrestler (Kurt Angle) can be propelled to 6'2". We think that Mr. Masvidal is just a bit taller than Ben Askren (5'9.5"), a bit shorter than Kamaru Usman (5'10.5") and around the same height as his old friend turned enemy - Colby "Chaos" Covington (5'10").
The real height of Jorge Masvidal is
5'10" or 178 cm
