UFC star wants Jorge Masvidal fight after claiming he privately messaged his wife

UFC star Michel Pereira wants to fight Jorge Masvidal after claiming he sent his wife a message on social media.

Pereira extended his unbeaten run to five fights by winning a hard-fought decision against Santiago Ponzinibbio on Saturday night. The win means Pereira will likely break into the welterweight rankings for the first time in his UFC career by taking Ponzinibbio's No.14 spot.
