Ali Abdelaziz hopes hopes Colby Covington ‘becomes blind’ in Kamaru Usman rematch

Kamaru Usman’s manager, Ali Abdelaziz, hopes ‘The Nigerian Nightmare’ puts a violent beating on Colby Covington in their all but confirmed welterweight title rematch.

Abdelaziz, who almost started a brawl with Covington at a Las Vegas casino in 2019, despises ‘Chaos’ so much that he hopes the former interim welterweight champion goes blind in the rematch, comparing the latter’s recent antics to UFC superstar Conor McGregor.

“That’s the fight,” Abdelaziz told MMA Junkie on Monday. “Listen, last time they fought, he broke his jaw. This fight, I hope he becomes blind or something bad happens to him because he’s a very bad guy.
