Jorge Masvidal has revealed when to expect his return to the octagon of the UFC organization.

Jorge Masvidal fought his last MMA bout in April 2023 when he lost to Gilbert Burns at UFC 287 in Miami. The gamebred didn’t give up the sport completely, however, and faced Nat Diaz in a boxing bout in California this summer.

Jorge Masvidal has been hinting for some time that he wants to return to the UFC octagon, and in September he held preliminary talks on the matter. Although Dana White has for the time being harbored a negative outlook on Masvidal’s next appearance in the best MMA league in the world, it seems that things may soon change.

The experienced 40-year-old fighter was Jake Shields ‘ guest on the Fight Back podcast. The fighters talked about the old days when they fought on opposite sides of the barricade. The discussion didn’t end with just reminiscing. At one point Masvidal revealed a potential date for his return to the UFC.

– I want to return to the UFC in April. I don’t have the name of the opponent yet however, I hope it will be chosen in December. April 2025, a gala in Miami.

The UFC organization has not yet announced the events scheduled for April. At this point we only know of galas scheduled for the first quarter of 2025. However, Jorge Masvidal, as an American Top Team fighter, probably has first-hand behind-the-scenes information from boss Dan Lambert, who runs the careers of many fighters.
