Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson Reveals Advice He Gave To Jorge Masvidal After Winning The BMF Title

Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson has opened up about the important advice he offered to UFC star Jorge Masvidal after his stunning victory over Nate Diaz.

And Johnson was in attendance for the event at Madison Square Garden and strapped the belt on 'Gamebred.'

The Rock explained: "I congratulated him, of course, and I talked to him about what this opportunity meant and how this BMF title that is somewhat polarising in the sport of MMA -- some guys were behind it and some guys weren't -- but again, this is this unique experience that kind of transcends weight divisions and the sport because it has such street cred.

"There's incredible champions who are incredibly disciplined and skilled in multiple disciplines of MMA, and then there's the BMFs. So I was very happy for Jorge...

"So I reminded him what an incredible opportunity this is and to take advantage of it and continue to work hard as, of course, he is going to do.

"And also, he's got a sharp wit about him which makes him very likable.

"He loves to talk s**t, as we all do down in Miami, but he also has a cool, sharp, smart wit about him and he's got his head in the right place, and his head being in the right place is wanting to do everything he can to impact his own bottom line, impact the company's bottom line, which will in turn generate more income for himself and the fighters.

"So he's really making sure that his value is realised."
