Jorge Masvidal suspected that the UFC had provided protection to safeguard Conor McGregor's reputation.
Conor McGregor again felt the sweetness of victory after conquering Donald Cerrone at the T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas, Nevada, United States.

The Irish Republican fighter even took only 40 seconds to win a TKO victory over Donald Cerrone.

After winning that victory, Conor McGregor was immediately confronted with several names that would become opponents in the next fight.

BMF belt holder, Jorge Masvidal, is one of the names in the list of candidates against McGregor next.

Yes, previously the fighter nicknamed The Notorius said that he was very interested in having a BMF belt held by Masvidal.

That desire had already reached the ears of Masvidal who also wanted to fight McGregor in the octagon arena.

However, their hopes will meet a barrier that is the blessing of the UFC through the president, Dana White.

Not long ago, Dana White said that the desire to hold the match was an unreasonable wish.

Masvidal then gave a loud statement and accused that the UFC only gave an easy match to McGregor to protect the fighter's reputation.

"UFC could have a big fight and get a lot of benefits," said Jorge Masvidal, quoted by BolaSport.com from SCMP.

"But that would damage McGregor's reputation, that's the reason why someone as smart as Dana White did not make that fight happen," he added.

Masvidal believes the UFC will continue to choose opponents who are light to McGregor and try hard so that the fight against him does not happen.

"I cannot blame that because the UFC must benefit too," Masvidal concluded.
