The rivalry between Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington is just getting bigger with each passing day. It all started with Covington insulting Masvidal on social media and since then both of these fighters have not missed any opportunity to trash the other. Colby Covington has even sent a few messages to Masvidal such as he might hurt him outside the cage before the Diaz fight. However, Jorge Masvidal’s recent threat to Covington is scary, to say the least.

During the media appearances before UFC 244, Jorge Masvidal opens up about his past relationship with Covington. “It hurts me that I was so fucking stupid and naive to let this individual anywhere near my family, friends, coaches, let him sleep on my couch for about a year. That’s what it hurts me I was that stupid and naive,” said Masvidal.

Colby Covington and Jorge Masvidal were close friends before this rivalry erupted. Masvidal believes it’s all part of the gimmick Covington is trying to play to create a hype for a future fight. However, Masvidal is not appreciative of what Covington has done for a few “facebook likes”, Masvidal added:

“Why after I let you sleep on my couch, you ate off my food. I helped you get on MMAJunkie, I helped you get on Ariel Helwani, BJ Penn.com all these things, why would you turn on me just for facebook likes. Are you are that much of a bitch?”

Jorge Masvidal had a beef with Ben Askren going into their fight in UFC 239 and it did not go well at all for Askren when Masvidal knocked him out brutally with a flying knee in 5 seconds. However, that’s nothing compared to what he has in store of Covington, claims Masvidal.

“The universe is going to correct that mistake via me. Our time will come, I’ll dictate when. A lot of people said that what I did to Ben was a little uncalled for, no it wasn’t. What I am gonna do to Colby is gonna be uncalled for. And I can put my life on that.”

Colby Covington will challenge the champion, Kamaru usman next for the title. If he manages to win against Usman and Masvidal gets past Nate Diaz then a fight between these former best friends will be inevitable. Well, it’s safe to assume that Jorge Masvidal is brining pure violence if he ever fights Covington.
