Jorge Masvidal (left), Malki Kawa (right) Welterweight contender Jorge Masvidal has weighed in on yet another controversial UFC judge's scorecard. A heavyweight clash at UFC 277 saw the debuting Hamdy Abdelwahab defeat Don'Tale Mayes in a highly entertaining fight. The Egyptian won the bout via split-decision.

Gilbert Burns targetting fight in November against Jorge Masvidal

Gilbert Burns has fans regarding a bout that could certainly have 'Fight of the Year' written all over it. The Brazilian appears to want to face the 'BMF' title holder Jorge Masvidal in November. While many fans will remember 'Durninho's last walk to the octagon when he faced , this match-up could well have fans equally excited. The Brazilian took to Twitter to reply to an unofficial page that hinted about a fight between himself and 'Gamebred'. "November??" Check out the tweet below: November?? if this is legit o boy we have a KO coming soon… ? if this is legit o boy we have a KO coming soon… ? November?? The timing of the bout would also make sense. Masvidal is currently undergoing court proceedings for his alleged attack on Colby Covington back in March. Both are expected to return to the octagon before the end of the year pending any serious consequences due to the legal proceedings. Gilbert Burns is currently the No.4-ranked welterweight whereas Masvidal sits at No.8. Both men have lost to reigning champion Kamaru Usman, however, a win for either fighter could be the beginning of another run for the title.
