Jorge Masvidal responds to being accused of messaging UFC star's wife

Jorge Masvidal insists he was only replying to Michel Pereira's wife after the UFC star accused him of messaging her out of the blue.

Pereira, who outpointed Santiago Ponzibbio last weekend, revealed in his post-fight interview that he wants to fight Masvidal because of an alleged interaction that 'Gamebred' had with his wife Gina Amir Atelier, who is a celebrity jeweller.

The Brazilian claimed that Masvidal sent an "emoji" to his wife, telling reporters: “The emoji with the two hands together like ‘amen.’ He sent it to my wife. I’ve never actually crossed paths with him. I didn’t have a chance to ask him, so I figured I really want to understand. But I might as well understand inside the octagon, settle it over there."
