Jorge Masvidal, the current BMF champion in the UFC, has an eye for talent. He recently shared a video on social media, of a young girl submitting a young boy in an amateur jiu-jitsu match. The video, which has since gone viral, shows the girl, who appears to be in her youth, expertly executing a rear naked choke on the boy, who is a few years older. Masvidal’s prophecy for the young fighter was extraordinary.
‘Gamebred’ knows about fighting at an early age and thus can recognize talent when he sees one. During his appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience, the duo talked about his bare-knuckle fighting days and how Masvidal and other fighters used to fight like savages.
The video the UFC fighter shared has garnered a lot of attention. In addition, it displays the importance of gender equality in the world of martial arts. It is not uncommon for female martial artists to be underestimated due to their gender. This video serves as a powerful reminder that women are just as capable as men when it comes to grappling and submission techniques.
Jorge Masvidal claims that the young girl is walking in Ronda Rousey’s footsteps
‘Street Jesus’ was present in the organization when ‘Rowdy‘ was on her triumphant run in the UFC. Perhaps that is why Masvidal has a level of respect for women in the sport as well can recognize talent in the younger generation.
He wrote, “This girl is going to be the next #RondaRousey!“
