NEW YORK – Here it is: the “Baddest Mother(expletive)” title belt that Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz will fight for at UFC 244.
Prior to Friday’s ceremonial weigh-ins, UFC president Dana White hosted a special gathering to officially unveil the title belt specifically made for the Masvidal (34-13 MMA, 11-6 UFC) vs. Diaz (20-11 MMA, 15-9 UFC) headliner.
The belt, coined by Diaz after his UFC 241 win over Anthony Pettis, resembles a real UFC title belt – but with some differences. It has “BMF” in big letters on the center plate. The numbers 500 and 244 are on each side – 500 to commemorate the UFC’s 500th event; 244 to mark the event itself.
On Saturday night at Madison Square Garden, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson will wrap the belt around the winner’s waist.
