Colby Covington calls ‘pretend information’ on Ian Machado Garry’s struggle claims
In a latest look on The Rush with Maxx Crosby, Covington cleared the air on the standing of a potential struggle with Garry.
“Everyone knows that he’s a cuck, however now we all know he’s a liar,” Covington mentioned of Garry. “As a result of the UFC, Dana [White], Hunter [Campbell], they haven’t talked to me about this struggle. He’s simply mendacity, he’s simply attempting to get clickbait…
“I’m gonna allow them to determine [my next fight]. Perhaps this child [Belal Muhammad] who’s been speaking loads, I believe if I beat that man it will get me proper again to a title struggle.”
Belal Muhammad is predicted to be UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards’s subsequent title problem, doubtlessly as quickly as UFC 304. Edwards defeated Covington at UFC 296 in December.
Covington has traded wins and losses since a seven-fight profitable streak en path to his first welterweight title shot. He went on to lose two title fights to Kamaru Usman, and one to Edwards.
Garry, the previous Cage Warriors welterweight titleholder, is undefeated by means of his first 14 skilled fights. He’s earned wins over the likes of Neil Magny and Daniel Rodriguez since his UFC debut.
Covington vs. Garry appears no nearer to coming to fruition, though if the UFC matchmakers pitch the struggle to Covington, it appears like he’d settle for it. One of the vital heated pairings within the welterweight division might get an enormous highlight someday in 2024.
