Colby Covington: Jorge Masvidal ‘making up lies’ about him to promote future fight

Colby Covington knows a thing or two about ramping up the chatter to build up a fight and he’s not convinced that friend-turned-rival Jorge Masvidal’s recent comments are on the up-and-up.

Masvidal accused “Chaos” of owing money to one of their coaches at American Top Team—those comments themselves a response to Covington saying that Masvidal was jealous of Covington’s success—and Covington refuted the allegations during an appearance on Submission Radio.

In Covington’s eyes, Masvidal is simply attempting to drum up interest in a future fight between the two.
