Jorge Masvidal Visits Old Neighbourhood, Talks Growing Up in Miami

Jorge Masvidal takes ESPN MMA’s Brett Okamoto back to the Miami apartment complex he grew up in with his mother. “Gamebred” tells stories about having his bike stolen and getting into the fights. He also discusses getting a knife pulled on him, living in his car, being the “dine and dash king of Miami”, trying to hide a bad report card from his mom, how he got connected with Dan Lambert at American Top Team and fighting in a backyard vs. Kimbo Slice’s protégé Ray. Masvidal describes how he can sense danger and how it led to the “3 piece and the soda.”
