The long-simmering rivalry between Jorge Masvidal and Leon Edwards might finally be headed for the octagon, but "Gamebred" says the UFC needs to meet his price. The original BMF champion, eyeing a return, has made it clear that settling their infamous 2019 backstage altercation is a top priority—if the financial terms are right.

Speaking on the "Deep Waters" show, Masvidal revealed negotiations have been ongoing but stalled. "It's low-hanging fruit for the UFC," Masvidal stated. "Just give me what I'm asking for, and we're good to go, man." He acknowledged the typical tough negotiations with the promotion, adding, "I love them to death, but man, they make you work for every single thing."

The potential showdown gained more traction when fellow fighter Dustin Poirier, a guest on the show, suggested slotting it into July's International Fight Week—a idea Masvidal seemed to embrace. "If they give me the Leon fight, I would get down to 170 by tomorrow," Masvidal declared, highlighting his readiness and desire for the matchup.

However, a hurdle remains. While Masvidal is publicly campaigning for the fight, Edwards may have other plans. Recent reports link the English welterweight to a bout at UFC 329 on July 11th, with veteran Daniel Rodriguez claiming he has accepted a contract to face Edwards. For now, fight fans are left waiting to see if money and timing will align to finally deliver one of MMA's most personal grudge matches.
