Jorge Masvidal believes Colby Covington could be a liability in the cage.
Jorge Masvidal thinks Kobe Covington is not fit enough to fight for the title
During the incident between Masvidal and Covington last year in Miami, a lawsuit has been ongoing. Masvidal is now giving a little more insight into the details of Covington’s claims, some of which he believes should rule him out from a title shot.
“I currently got three felonies because this bi-ch Colby says I gave him a brain injury,” he said in a pre-fight presser. “So how the f–k is he going to fight for any title is what I want to know. The UFC is gonna get sued if that guy goes in there and something like that happens right? Because supposedly, allegedly, as I didn’t do sh-t, he says I gave him a brain injury. I didn’t do sh-t though.”
He thinks that Covington claiming brain trauma due to their incident should rule him out from any title shot that the UFC is sending his way. This of course would free up the opportunity for “Gamebred” to face Leon Edwards with a win over Burns. This is exactly what he’s been campaigning for and if his accusations are true would set him up exactly where he wants to be. Edwards has also stated that he would prefer to fight Masvidal as well.
