Jake Paul slams Covington for pressing charges against Masvidal: ‘Chris Rock didn’t press charges’

5-0 boxer Jake Paul has scolded Colby Covington for pressing charges against Jorge Masvidal and says UFC fighters are getting soft.

Paul, 25, compared Masvidal’s alleged street attack on Covington to Will Smith’s now-viral slap on Chris Rock at the Oscars.

“Chris Rock didn’t press charges but Colby Covington did lol. Just shows how much of a pussy Colby is. Make Fighters Not Soft Again,” Paul wrote.

Covington is reported to have pressed charges against Masvidal after ‘Gamebred’ allegedly punched him outside a restaurant in Miami, Florida last week.
