Jorge Masvidal could face a felony arrest after he allegedly sucker-punched Colby Covington twice breaking one of his teeth

Jorge Masvidal reportedly sucker-punched Colby Covington twice on Monday night in Miami as more details have been released.

Late Monday evening it was reported that Masvidal and Covington got into a scuffle at Miami Beach restaurant Papi Steak and police were called. At the time, no one knew who was at fault but on Tuesday, Fox Sports 640 South Florida radio host Andy Slater – who broke the story – took to Twitter to provide more details on the incident.

According to Slater, Masvidal went to the restaurant with a surgical mask on and his hood up and sucker-punched Covington twice. Those punches allegedly broke Covington’s tooth and he had an abrasion on his wrist.

Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington are bitter rivals as the two used to be best friends and roommates. Yet, they had a massive falling out and they were supposed to settle their differences at UFC 272 which ‘Chaos’ dominated and won by decision. However, the bad blood was not done there as ‘Gamebred’ went after Covington in the streets of Miami.

What kind of punishment Masvidal will receive from the law is uncertain. But, he could very well be arrested for his attack on Covington.
