    Colby Covington, thoughts?

    I hate that shit talking moron, but he beating Dos Anjos kinda legitimizes him...

    Skipped it, saw a few secs... I cant stand this guy talking trash, unlike Connor it doest come off natural with him, seems forced and frankly, this guy looks awkward 90% of his interviews...

    Cringeworthy actually. He can fight. Id really like him if he toned it down. But that behavior is what got him the title shot.

    Is Colby going to continuously take Woodley down? No chance. He's going to get starched on the feet by Woodley, dudes striking is fukking garbage.

    I dont wanna see it either but I thought RDA was gonna mail Colby and look? MMA is a freaky sport anything can happen...

    And we know what happens when fighters lose their mind and get emotional... just like Jose Aldo Or Joanna JEAJKKAJEJAK

    Lol, I love the spelling of that dumb bitches last name. I actually thought RDA/Colby would be tight, and I picked Colby by close decision, basically because the size difference. I know RDA has the striking edge, but I figured he wouldn't have the power to really keep Colby off of him, T-Wood has that power and he has the size and wrestling to negate Colby's shots... Shit even RDA was able to fend off more than 50% of TDs and even land a few of his own.

    Styles make fights and I just think Colby gets starched... Just my opinion, bro.

    I'm not a Woodley fan. He pulls the race card way too much for me.

    He's a boring fighter and a bad commentator

    Then when he gets booed for those things his Ferguson roots kick in

    He could be so exciting if he went for the KO, he has the power to KO anyone at WW. I don't think he's racist, I just feel like he plays the race card too much. He's unpopular because he doesn't have the kill mentality.

    I'm loving me some Colby right about now...I lol!

    In his most recent conflict he's chewing out Matt Serra, who he believes is "losing a 10-8 battle to diabetes," is "50" and sporting a record of "like 10-10." lol!

    ...called GSP a syrup sucking Canadian and "he'll drop him dead where he stands" lol and I'm Canadian

    I like the talk of his "cardio" work...

    I especially like when he mispronounces people's names as a slight, whether intentional or not.

    The Trump angle, an advanced heel move...

    Hey, he's making it interesting and giving something to talk about. Hopefully he sits Woodley on his ass and the party continues, babyyyy

    Give him credit for getting in the cage and winning but he's trying too hard. His act is kind of cheesy.

    Like him or hate him, Colby is the most interesting thing to happen to the UFC in awhile. He has people talking about him which is more than most MMA fighters who people completely forget exist, can say.

    I like Colby although I think he takes things a bit too far at times.

    Colby will not be talked about after losing his next couple fights. He's not that good.

    people don't like him out of their own selfishness

    yes, we want to watch guys go for the KO or sub...but that's not in the cards for every single fight

    the goal of every fight is to come out with a victory....as a champ, you need to the the W to keep the belt, and status

    this is a business, and their livelihood is on the line

    Say whatever you like... Colby did come closer to breaking and finishing Demian Maia than Woodley did.

    People don't want to give Colby credit but he is very good.

    That was kinda funny... lol... Covington is a punk loud mouth.. Arrogant... Not sure if this his normal attitude or he's doing this to promote himself as the villain? He's kind of a combination between Nate Diaz and Chael Sonnen in the shiit talking department.....

    He's a tough out though in the octagon with his wrestling, cardio and pace and his improved stand up. He could win the title for sure.. Nobody wants to fight this clown right now.. He won't get an invite to the White House either..
