It was originally teased that reigning welterweight champ Kamaru Usman would headline the upcoming UFC 244 PPV opposite former interim titleholder Colby Covington, but the UFC went ahead and booked Nate Diaz vs. Jorge Masvidal instead.
Usman, who has yet to defend his welterweight title, recently caught the attention of Covington after ‘The Nigerian Nightmare’ posted a tweet about wanting to fight at UFC 244 in New York.
Covington, however, claims ‘Marty FakeNewsman’ never had any intentions of fighting on the card.
Bitch, you don’t want to fight. Saying dumb shit like this is why they call you Marty FakeNewsman.
