UFC Notebook: Masvidal stuns London. aaronbronsteter has MORE:
Jorge Masvidal had been out of action for nearly a year and he returned to the octagon with the tall task of defeating Darren Till, the 26-year-old hometown star who was coming off of a welterweight championship loss to now-former champion Tyron Woodley last September.
Masvidal is 5-4 since his move to welterweight, but his losses have come against some of the top competitors in the division.Leon Edwards continued to make gains in the welterweight division, earning his seventh straight win by defeating Gunnar Nelson via split decision. Following the event, Edwards was caught on camera shouting something inaudibly at Jorge Masvidal while he was being interviewed backstage. Masvidal quickly left his interview to confront Edwards and landed some punches on him before being separated.
At 29, Reyes is one of the younger competitors in the light heavyweight division and among the very few with a blemish-free record. With a college football pedigree and significant range, Reyes is one of the athletes in the division who would be an interesting matchup for the champion Jon Jones.
