Jail records, obtained by TMZ Sports, show the 37-year-old UFC star was booked in Miami at 10:27 PM ET on Wednesday and posed for a mug shot.

The records show he was booked on two charges — aggravated battery with a mask, and criminal mischief. His bond has been set at $15,000, the records show.
As we previously reported, Masvidal has been accused of punching Covington twice as his UFC rival was leaving popular restaurant Papi Steak on Monday night.
In police documents, cops say Covington told them Masvidal hit him in the mouth and the eye — causing him to fracture a tooth.
Cops also say Covington suffered an abrasion on his wrist and a damaged watch.

In video we obtained shortly after the alleged incident, Covington can be heard appearing to describe the attack, saying, “He’s over here swinging, trying to come at me, and I ran …”
Covington has yet to comment publicly on the incident.
