It aims to reduce inflation in the United States of America via drug pricing, tax reforms, and investment in domestic energy production. Masvidal recently took to Twitter to stress that it's "super necessary" for Americans to protest against the increase in taxes. He wrote: "Love me or hate me call your representatives and tell them to vote NO to raise your taxes today #supernecessary." Jorge Masvidal UFC@GamebredFighterLove me or hate me call your representatives and tell them to vote NO to raise your taxes today #supernecessary147899Love me or hate me call your representatives and tell them to vote NO to raise your taxes today #supernecessary The Inflation Reduction Act, however, doesn't directly increase taxes on households with annual incomes below $400,000. This means that the aforementioned tax reform isn't affecting low and middle-income groups as much as it does to people falling within the high-income group category. Masvidal's tweet seems to have fallen on deaf ears as most fans don't seem to be worried about the increase in taxes and jibed at 'Gamebred' instead, poking fun at the fact that "millionaires" like him will now have to pay more tax. One Twitter user wrote: "You and the other millionaires are just going to have to eat it." Girly_Shirley‍@BomurfT@GamebredFighter You and the other millionaires are just going to have to eat it.

A fight-game veteran, Masvidal would like to earn a big paycheck by fighting the Irishman next. Having said that, McGregor's return date is still unknown and it could take some time before that fight comes to fruition. Leon Edwards and Kamaru Usman will fight for the welterweight title at UFC 278 on August 20. The Englishman previously stated that he'd like to defend the title in a grudge match against Masvidal if he manages to dethrone Usman. 'Gamebred' has shown interest in that fight as well. Another fight he's interested in is against former welterweight title challenger Gilbert Burns. During a recent interaction with MMA Fighting, Jorge Masvidal said: "The [fight] that makes the most sense is that little b***h Conor [McGregor]... I wouldn’t mind getting a fat paycheck for beating that f***ing midget’s a** up. I don’t know if it’s going to happen. Gilbert [Burns] makes sense, but also Leon [Edwards] has been calling me out left right and centre saying he wants to defend the title against me. Let’s go, I’ll go to England and beat your a** again." Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Edited by Allan Mathew × Feedback Thank You!
