Kudos to Marc for knowing when to just let Jorge run with the dialogue. Great interview. Edit - 3:32 I believe ambassador is the word Jorge was looking for.

“What’s the headline on March 6th in the morning about the fight? *Masvidal: “Colby in critical condition. Might not fully make it.”*

I think we've all had a "friend" like Colby at least once in our life

Masvidal looks extremely stressed. You can tell he's putting his heart and soul into this training camp. It's that personal

What an incredible interview. Just completely fleshed out the story from start to finish. Kudos to the interviewer for making it about the fighter, and not about himself. Also, knowing the right questions to ask and letting Jorge speak.

Feel bad for Masvidal. Seems like he truly took colby's betrayal to heart. This will be an epic fight!

Pounds of respect to Jorge for being real and not acting for the cameras. That’s a true warrior of honor

Jorge killed it with sushi place bit. "Dinners on me" 🤣 20:45

I feel like Jorge told his side honestly and whole heartedly. It appears Masvidal was more effected by this lost friendship than Colby. Colby sees fighting as simply a job, but fighting and the culture is his entire life.

“I just wanted to talk to him outside.” Jorge can be sincere and you still will be on edge about a fight breaking out lmao

Bo Nickal is an absolute stud. I watched throughout college. He’s going to prepare Jorge well for Covington.

His focus, his honesty has earned a lot of respect. I already respected him as a fighter. It seems like he’s thought this fight through and isn’t emotionally attached to the fight.

So much love for Jorge, a very honest man who cares about those around him.

His interviews are soo good he knows how to talk so proper and tell the story

Don't think ppl realized how much this bothered Jorge. He's a very loyal man. Someone he did so much for stabbing him in the back had to hurt him deeply. Some real hatred but also sadness in his eyes/tone towards a former friend.

You can tell the interviewer is truly a fan and a journalist of the sport. The call back to the years and time of the beef building up is crazy.

This interviewer is better than 90% of other MMA interviewers. Keep it coming ESPN 🔥

Man I could only imagine if they did a face-to-face interview between Jorge and Colby. I’m dying to see that lol

Totally been thru the same thing supporting a friend and everything for years. Sometimes it’s better to cut off the people you thought were your best friend. 👏🏽

Jorge's a real dude. One thing I noticed about Colby during the countdown show was that he seemed ungrateful, character or not, while Jorge will give people credit. I hope Jorge takes this one.

Straight up I need a friend like Jorge

I believe Jorge- everything he said was detailed and backed with specific examples. TeamMasvidal

It’s always that one nerd who you tell a story to, and they just don’t get it. Raimondi asking Jorge what was going to happen at the Sushi place was a moment in nerd history lol. “Were you going to talk or fight him at the sushi place?!” Jorge looking at him with that blank stare was priceless…LMAO

The look he gave when said "what do you think?" Jorge is legitimately a terrifying individual

This press conference is gonna be lit

No matter what Colby says, I like Jorge because his story, upbringing and how real he keeps it.

The interviewer is GREAT that is who ESPN needs on the MMA interviews constantly and yes the people at ESPN take notes! Interviews like this Actually sells the fight & makes it more interesting shoutout to the Guy way to go💯💪🏽💪🏽🙌🏽

Woah. Who knew there was so much back story between these two. A first in the UFC where two fighters have this much history

jon jones saying colby is a bad guy will always be the greatest irony of all time

I honestly believe Jorge 100%. I don't mean this as an insult, because he doesn't claim to be a scholar but I don't think he's smart enough to lie so fluidly. I would make a huge bet that everything he just said was 100% true. Guys like him and Diaz have the following that they do because they're just real.

So excited for this whole fight and press conference, I’m off work Saturday night this weekend so I can actually watch, I’m just super pumped for this

Masvidals always been the realest I think his last performance against usman has made people forgot how good he can be at his best, he can definitely beat Colby but Colby is un real as well definitely the favourite for a reason

Full support for Jorge in this fight. *LET'S GO! 💪*

Jorge should be proud of himself. Got a title shot off of a Diaz win, got another title shot right after!. And he headlined 2 ppvs without a belt.

I'm so sad that Jorge's gonna lose this fight. Would be incredible to see him catch Colby. Really rooting for him

Amazing interview guys !!!!! 👍👍👍 Much respect to you both !!!!!

This was no BS Jorge, I believe him actually

If this beef is fake, then Masvidal deserves an academy award

There a big difference in who these two guys are. Jorge straight up gangster outside the cage, and turns into a pro fighter in the cage. Colby is a regular guy with insecurities outside the cage and an amazing fighter inside the cage. The cage has a ref and rules etc. Colby feels safe inside the cage. However as a man he is afraid of Jorge outside the octagon.

21:05 That's one of the coldest, sickest moments from any mma interview I've seen. Look at his face when he answers the question. The best part is before this he's talking like he actually does want to just talk it out. Then the interviewer asks the question to clarify and you sort of snap back to reality. Colby was dead to him as soon as he ripped off the coach.

Jorge’s a standup guy. Hard not to believe his story on this

Even though Masvidal is a decorated striker, Colby has improved his striking significantly he even gave Usman problems on the feet that’s just scary combined with his relentless pace and wrestling.

love to see the comments in here giving Marc the respect he deserves, instead of making fun of his height. also, amazing how genuine Masvidal is

Very well conducted interview. *Edit: The timestamps are gold.* 👌🏽

Dude he actually won my respect with interview. He looks like a real stand up dude.

Jorge's side of story sounds genuine for some reason. I hope he gets the win but it's gonna be tough for him. It's not the right that always wins but the strongest. Colby went full distance with usman and seems to have a better cardio, wrestling and ground game. But jorge very lethal in the earlier rounds. Either way, maybe the best man win, can't wait for the fight.

Won't find many fights where one fighter is under THIS much pressure. This gets about as "must win" as they come for Masvidal. Rooting for him but he's in for one helluva fight.

Solid interview. Marc always does a great job

I really think this interview is gonna have a lot of people rethinking this fight: -Jorge is really thinking about this fight strategically (heavy wrestling work, recognizing Colby’s cardio) -Jorge talking about Colby’s past friendship, not hatefully but in a retrospective way.

The press conference for this one is going to be madness

Colby hatessss confrontation with a passion. He can beat the best fighters ever but still cower when confronted. That’s how u can tell the kind of guy he is.

Such an incredible interview with some amazing comments below..im so pumped for this fight !!!

“This is not a therapy session” Actually… It is 😂 Without Colby.

This dude is way better than Brett Okamoto.

Buzzing for this one. Up till about 6am but will be worth it👊🏻

Man you gotta respect this man’s values

Jorge's story is really consistent with Colby's character

Here’s the thing.. When Masvidal fought Usman for the first time, he did a decent job defending takedowns. For the second fight he invested everything into wrestling and cardio and ignored the standup game because Usman’s punches in the first fight didn’t affect him. And the fact that we didn’t get to see his wrestling improvement because of K.O. early on makes this fight really interesting. I think Colby will not take him down as many times as he thinks, but we have to see it to know it. Masvidal was being overconfident, cocky in the second fight with Usman. There was some beef, but it wasn’t real, so Masvidal was putting on a performance and underestimated Usman’s stand up game. Which is normal since Usman didn’t show his power after 5 rounds in the first fight. With Colby I don’t see Masvidal laughing and trying to be a clown. I see him being serial killer that wants to tear up Colby, because it’s that serious. I think Masvidal really wants to end this dude inside and outside the cage..

This interview changed my mind about the outcome of the fight. While I still give Colby the edge due to his endurance and pace (a lot of suggestions that he is on PED’s) - it’s clear that Jorge KNOWS this guy, inside and out. I just hope he still has enough left in the tank to get this victory.

Great interview and good to hear both sides. 👍

One of the best mma interviews from ESPN ever.

Stellar interview!!!! Can’t wait for this fight!!!

Jorge is very good at talking. Smooth, natural , fluid speaker. Can listen to Jorge interviews all day. I was leaning towards Colby coming into this fight but Jorge is making me question that. Cant wait for the fight.

Marc might be the best interviewer in ESPN. Asks his questions, let's the fighters answer.

Man, this fight has to have the most emotional baggage attached to it. Even more than the Khabib-McGregor fight, because these guys knew each other. Can't wait, my respect always goes out to Masvidal.

I trust Masvidal because the authority with which he speaks, u just know he's telling the truth. Go get W my man!🌷👍

I still cant beleive he woke up, rise and shine masvidal 💯

You can tell he’s telling it for real

the last line of the entire interview 😂😂😂😂😂

i would love to see them hugging and crying after the fight man.

Probably the best interview to date... props.

Love that Jorge is spilling all this. Hard to not believe it all.

“Colby in critical condition, might not make it” 😂

Win, lose, or draw. Huge Fan! Mad respect and Love. He's a real one like the Diaz brothers. How can you not cheer for real and genuine people. People just want real and genuine people and relationships. No bush beating. Just upfront my kind of people.

Might be the best fighter interview of all time, incredible stuff

Finding a coach like that is my dream...it really really is...

Jorge's looking real lean. Everyone predicting a 50-45 Colby win gonna have another thing coming

He called colby his best friend in the old vlogs so...

Much Love and respect my brother

This man is one of the most solidest people I've ever watched! 💪🏼

You can tell this is hitting masvidal a little, he’s being real about the story and you can tell he’s not lying

I’m waiting for the Jorge + Colby x Steven A cross over STOP MAKING US WAIT

Amazing interview. “Colby in critical condition, might not fully make it” one can only dream let’s go mas

Great interview.

Vamos Jorge Argentina está siempre con vos campeón Saludos desde Buenos Aires

Feel like poker made them closer then mma. They talk about poker alot. Even when Jorge was pep talking between rounds he said this isn't poker lol.

I love both these dudes...Colby and Jorge both.

you can tell hes been training hard, cant wait for this fight

I just became Jorge Masvidal fan for life. He's the real one!

Let's go Jorge Masvidal 🙌

Great interview Marc 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽☘️

Colby and masvidal had both great interviews..I suggest wacth both interviews. Learn alot

I really hope this guy wins, he’s an honest guy who tells it how it is.

the battle for trumps heart

This video is a production masterpiece

really good interview gj to the interviewer 👏👏

The real reason im watching this is to find out where does Kevin Lee fits into all this

I feel like Jorge really told the whole honest truth as much as I like Colby as a fighter he’s dead in the wrong and should pay what he owes and apologize!

Can't wait for this fight

Good interview deserves millions views.
