Colby Covington doesn’t believe former friend-turned-rival Jorge Masvidal will achieve any more success in the UFC after their five-round fight in March 2022.
In an interview with Michael Bisping, Covington said his win over Masvidal changed his rival’s fighting career and his personal life.
“Jorge [Masvidal] is a broken man. He’s not the same fighter after I destroyed him, beat him 50-44 with a soda. Obviously he’s had an emotional letdown,” Covington said. “His life is unravelling…You could tell he’s just not the same person.”
Masvidal is scheduled to face Gilbert Burns on April 8 in Miami, Florida at UFC 287.
