Jorge Masvidal has organized another Gamebred Bareknuckle MMA tournament. According to reports, Masvidal took out a substantial bank loan to finance the event. The post announces the event poster and confirms that Masvidal is continuing to invest in his bareknuckle MMA promotion. The tournament features both MMA fights and bareknuckle competition under the Gamebred banner.
Reports emerged this week suggesting Jorge Masvidal secured a substantial bank loan to fund the latest installment of his Gamebred Bareknuckle MMA promotion, though the claim has not been officially confirmed.
The unverified reports surfaced alongside an event poster promoting the upcoming tournament, which is said to feature a mix of traditional MMA bouts and bareknuckle competition under the Gamebred banner. The financial details — specifically the size and terms of the loan — have not been independently verified.
Masvidal, 41, is one of the more recognizable names in combat sports to step into the promotional side of the business. The Miami-born fighter carries a professional MMA record of 35 wins and 17 losses, built across decades of competition. Known by his nickname "Gamebred," the five-foot-eleven orthodox fighter trained out of American Top Team and compiled a significant striking output during his career, averaging 4.05 significant strikes landed per minute at 47 percent accuracy. He also added a takedown threat to his game, averaging 1.38 takedowns per 15 minutes.
Why it matters
- Masvidal is reportedly using personal financing, suggesting the Gamebred promotion operates independently without a major broadcast or investment partner backing this event.
- The hybrid format — combining standard MMA and bareknuckle competition — positions Gamebred as a crossover product targeting fans of both disciplines.
- If confirmed, the financial commitment signals Masvidal's continued long-term ambitions as a promoter beyond his fighting career.
Because this story is based on unconfirmed reports, the full scope of Masvidal's financial involvement and the event's official details should be treated with caution until the promotion or Masvidal himself provides a formal announcement.
