Colby Covington wants to return to the Octagon much sooner than expected.
Although ‘Chaos’ was thought to be a nursing a broken jaw following his fifth-round TKO loss to Kamaru Usman at UFC 245, the former interim welterweight champion has assured us he’s in good shape and ready to go.
Speaking to MMA Fighting in a recent interview, Covington demanded an immediate rematch with Usman and blamed referee ‘Marc Not So Goodard’ for issuing a ‘fake stoppage’ in the fifth round.
“I went out there and I beat up ‘Marty Fakenewsman’ for 24 minutes until the ref had to stop the fight on a fake stoppage – a bullsh*t stoppage,” Covington said on Monday.
