Mas implies Colby can't show his face. He must have landed at least once on him.

It looks like Colby did hit him back before running, unless that's a training scuff on Mas face.

UFC star Colby Covington told cops Jorge Masvidal punched him in the face twice and fractured his tooth in an attack outside of a Miami hotspot on Monday night ... police documents, obtained by TMZ Sports, show.
In the docs, cops say Covington told them as he exited Papi Steak restaurant, Masvidal "ran up to him from his left, and without notice, punched him with a closed fist two times in the face."
Cops in the report say Covington told them one punch landed on his mouth, while the other connected with his left eye.
According to the docs, cops say Covington heard Masvidal yell, "You shouldn't have been talking about my kids."
Several other males then allegedly tried to get involved, though cops say Covington told them he pushed one of the men away and ran back into Papi Steak, where he called police.
Cops say Covington told them he fractured his front left tooth in the attack, and also suffered an abrasion on his wrist. Police in the documents say Covington's watch was damaged as well.
Masvidal is listed as a suspect in the docs. The incident type is described as a battery/felony. Police added an investigation into the allegations is underway.
"No additional information is currently available," a police spokesperson said in a statement.

In Florida, Felony Battery is any intentional and unconsented touching or striking, which results in great bodily harm to another person or which occurs after a previous conviction for battery. The offense is a third degree felony, with maximum penalties of up to 5 years in prison.

broke tooth seems like a stretch for felony battery

Under Florida law, Simple Battery (Misdemeanor Battery) is a first degree misdemeanor, with penalties of up to one year in jail or 12 months probation, and a $1,000 fine

probably end with nothing, maybe another fight

Whats the previous conviction of battery mean, and does it apply to this situation? So just a broken tooth might not be the deciding factor?

my understanding, if convicted of simple or aggravated battery before, they can charge for felony even if i would normally count as simple.

i thought Jorge had be in jail before, but seem it was only a rumor. looked around, all i found was in 2020, ariel asked him about it, but he didn't say.

I do remember something about him getting into some sort of trouble but never really heard what had happened.
