Jorge Masvidal may be stepping in on short notice at UFC 251, but he’s been staying ready the entire time, thanks to his housemate. Masvidal (35-13 MMA, 12-6 UFC) had initially offered to save the UFC 249 card on April 18 when the COVID-19 pandemic was in its early stages. But now, with Gilbert Burns ruled out after testing positive for COVID-19 , Masvidal will face welterweight champion Kamaru Usman on just six days’ notice in the main event of UFC 251 this Saturday.
