Covington: ‘Black Lives Matter is a complete sham’; ‘communist’ Woodley ‘hates America’

As he would in his media obligations in the last three years, Colby Covington managed to ruffle some feathers. During the UFC Vegas 11 pre-fight presser, he got into it with opponent Tyron Woodley about the Black Lives Matter movement.

At one point, Woodley responded to every question with “Black Lives Matter.” Covington responded by referring to the former champion as a racist and a “domestic terrorist sympathizer.”

But after he ended up with the fifth-round TKO win via an injury on Woodley, “Chaos” let it all out during the post-fight presser.
