Masvidal: Sonnen ‘will go back and apologize’ when I ‘murder’ Covington at UFC 272

Chael Sonnen made some comments this week about the upcoming grudge match between Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington at UFC 272. The former three-time UFC title challenger turned ESPN analyst lauded “Gamebred” for taking a “career-ending fight” against Covington.

“If he goes out there and he gets taken down and he gets mauled for 25 minutes, it is going to take a lot of luster off of the shine that is the second-biggest draw, the BMF Jorge Masvidal,” Sonnen said.

These statements eventually got to Masvidal, who issued his response on a recent episode of The MMA Hour.
