Colby Covington blasts Jorge Masvidal for telling ‘blatant lies,’ promises to silence ‘Street Judas’ when they fight

Colby Covington may have his sights set on Kamaru Usman and the welterweight title at UFC 245. But he’s not forgetting about his former friend turned bitter rival, Jorge Masvidal.

Considering him a close ally in the past, Covington took a sharp right turn on Masvidal when he trashed his fellow American Top Team teammate while both were involved in negotiations with the UFC for a potential title fight.

The social media shot then erupted into a full-blown war of words between the two fighters. Now, they may finally be destined for a collision course inside the Octagon.
