For Jorge Masvidal, the road to UFC gold goes through Stephen Thompson.
After UFC president Dana White confirmed Wednesday that Georges St-Pierre would meet the winner of Tyron Woodley-Demian Maia, Masvidal took to Twitter to state his plans for the division.
Let's not play no games I'm fighting @WonderboyMMA for a title shot after gsp. If his ass don't want to fight, I'm next. #hoslapseason

Masvidal (32-12) suffered a split decision defeat to Maia this past May, snapping his three-fight win streak. During that run, “Gamebred” took out Donald Cerrone, Jake Ellenberger and Ross Pearson.
Thompson (13-2-1) hasn’t fought since dropping a majority decision to Woodley for the belt this past March.
