Video: Colby Covington and Kamaru Usman exchange tirades, get heated at ESPN post-fight show

Fans may love him or hate him, but Colby Covington has so far backed up his incessant smack talk. On Saturday night, “Chaos” defeated former American Top Team training partner Robbie Lawler via a dominant unanimous decision verdict, earning him a title shot against current champion Kamaru Usman.

While the encounter between the two has yet to be set, Covington once again crossed paths with “The Nigerian Nightmare” outside of the Octagon. This time around, the two met at the broadcast booth during the ESPN post-fight show, where Usman was one of the analyst.

Covington remained cordial while being interviewed by Karyn Bryant and Rashad Evans.
