UPDATE
7:03 PM PT — Kevin Holland‘s manager, Oren Hodak of KOreps, tells TMZ Sports … Holland was the one who Jorge Masvidal was trying to go after outside of the weigh-ins on Friday morning.
UPDATE
According to Hodak, Holland simply told Masvidal, “Sup, baby girl” — which caused the 38-year-old UFC star to become enraged.
UPDATE
Hodak said those words were what set off the two fighters’ initial altercation on Wednesday as well.
Jorge Masvidal apparently doesn’t want to wait ’til Saturday night to fight … ’cause he nearly came to blows with someone on the streets of Miami on Friday morning.
TMZ Sports has obtained video of the UFC star outside of the UFC 287 weigh-ins at the event’s host hotel … and you can see in the footage, he was clearly enraged at someone.
It’s unclear exactly who the 38-year-old was quarreling with — but one witness tells us the person yelled at Masvidal, “You’re a clown.”
The video shows Masvidal repeatedly trying to go after his heckler … although he was constantly held back from exploding on the person. He eventually walked away from the scene before things got physical.
Masvidal tipped the scales at 171 pounds at the Friday morning weigh-in in preparation for his Saturday fight with Gilbert Burns. It’s not known yet if this video was taken before or after the ceremonies.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Of course, this is not the first altercation Masvidal has been involved in this week in the leadup to the Burns fight … he and Kevin Holland got into a heated spat on Wednesday at the UFC 287 host hotel as well.
