The UFC is creating a REAL custom “Baddest Mother F**ker” belt for the upcoming Nate Diaz vs. Jorge Masvidal fight … and Dana White says it ain’t cheap!!!
“I think it’s gonna be like $50,000,” White tells TMZ Sports.
Of course, the whole thing came about after Nate Diaz defeated Anthony Pettis in August and, during a post-fight interview, declared himself the ‘BMF’ champion of the world.
“We’re fighting for the baddest mother f**ker in the game belt and that’s mine,” Diaz said after the Pettis fight … “So, I’d like to defend it against Jorge Masvidal.”
White liked the idea and the UFC is running with it — in fact, White says Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has already agreed to present the belt to the winner of the fight on November 2 at UFC 244, which will be held at Madison Square Garden in New York City!!!
“If The Rock wants to do it, The Rock gets what the Rock wants!!!”
