‘I’m Going to Give Them a Show Tomorrow’-Colby Covington Promises to Be In the Arena at UFC 261

The welterweight strap will be on the line tomorrow at UFC 261. Kamaru Usman will defend his belt against Jorge Masvidal for the second time. For fans tuning in, it will be interesting to see how much a full training camp and not having to cut 20-pounds in six days will help ‘Gamebred’. One person in particular who will be in attendance, and will be eager to see how this fight plays out, is Colby Covington. 

‘Chaos’ is next in line for the winner of the fight at UFC 261, as confirmed by UFC head honcho Dana White. Hence, in order to scout the competition at close quarters, Covington has confirmed that he will be at the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena to watch former teammate and friend, Jorge Masvidal, take on arch-rival, Kamaru Usman.

Colby Covington picks Kamaru Usman to win once again at UFC 261

In a recent interview, Mike Bohn of MMA Junkie asked ‘Chaos’ if he believes Kamaru Usman will beat Jorge Masvidal on Saturday night. 

Ever since his loss to Kamaru Usman at UFC 245, ‘Chaos’ has been relentlessly demanding a rematch stating fake stoppages cost him the fight. After a few months of inactivity, Covington returned to the octagon to stop former champion Tyron Woodley and has since been gunning for a shot at the belt. 

Despite White’s words, nothing in the UFC is guaranteed unless the contracts are signed. What do you make of the fight tomorrow night? Do you see Colby Covington’s prediction coming true? Let us know in the comments below!
