JORGE MASVIDAL was taken into custody following his alleged attack on Colby Covington, a UFC competitor.
According to reports, the pair clashed at a Miami steakhouse Monday -- less than three weeks after their grudge match in the octagon.

Masvidal can be seen in a Twitter video being posted by a Miami journalist. He is seen getting out of a police car with his hands tied.
As he runs quickly into the station, a reporter can be heard calling out "Jorge, do you have any to say?"
ESPN reports that Masvidal, 37 years old, was taken into custody Wednesday night for aggravated battery with bodily injury and criminal mischief.
His bail was set at $15,000 (PS11 400).

After his lawyer called Miami Beach police, Masvidal was believed to have surrendered to them.
ESPN obtained an incident report that describes Masvidal punching a man twice in the face in front of the exclusive Papi Steak restaurant on Miami Beach.
One punch to the face caused a portion of the man's teeth to fall out, and the other made contact with his eye.

Masvidal, a fellow UFC star, said that Covington was not mentioned in the report. He also stated in an Instagram video, "Call it the show your face challenge. You "You shouldn’t have been talking to my children."
"What's the matter, I'm from Dade County. Talk that s**t. You have to back it up. This is how my city rolls, man."
Masvidal was also reported to have needed stitches in his right hand following the incident.
It is believed that he also said, "You shouldn’t have been talking to my children," before the attack.
After a four-year long feud, the pair met at UFC 272 on February 5. Covington won by unanimous decision.
After losing the match, Masvidal told Covington that he would do anything to "break his f***ing jaw", after Masvidal had allegedly spoken about Masvidal’s children.
