UFC Welterweight star Jorge Masvidal may have lost his last fight in the Octagon, but the fighting spirit is alive and well.

On Friday, Masvidal called former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick a “coward” over Kaepernick’s wearing of a Fidel Castro t-shirt in 2016.

Know ur history and facts cowards like this fool should be sent to live in Cuba see what they say after a day there,” Masvidal wrote on a post published to the UFC star’s Instagram.

I do not think X thought like Castro, having read his autobiography. He wanted dignity and self sufficiency for blacks, not a mommy state.

I saw an interview of Malcolm X. I found myself nodding in agreement with most everything he said.

Really interesting life story. In his 20s he was an inarticulate thug. He said his vocabulary was down to about 200 words at that point in his life. He got wiser through faith and a search for what was true, even if it challenged his assumptions. He eventually overcame his bigotry toward whites, by going to Mecca, of all things. (He saw white Muslim pilgrims from Albania and realized he could not just condemn people based on how they look). He was looking into the corruption of leadership in his sect when he was killed.
