Colby Covington has no regrets about Matt Hughes ‘train’ comments, Hughes, Robbie Lawler respond

Colby Covington threw hundreds of strikes in his win over Robbie Lawler on Saturday, but he had one more shot to fire after the fight.

Following a dominant performance in the main event of UFC on ESPN 5 in Newark, New Jersey, Covington used a portion of his post-fight mic time to take a crack at Lawler and Lawler’s longtime friend, welterweight great Matt Hughes.

“Let’s talk about the lesson we learned tonight that Robbie should have learned from his good buddy Matt Hughes,” Covington said to interviewer Jon Anik.
