Colby Covington, one of the most polarizing fighters on the UFC roster, detailed the things that make him hate two of his fellow UFC fighters and his former roommates: Jorge Masvidal and Jon Jones. The number one ranked welterweight has got into many UFC fighters’ skins with his witty comments and has cut no corners when doing so.
In an interview with Kevin Iole, ‘Chaos’ said, “I mean, there’s a common thing with those two guys. You’re talking about two scumbags, two criminals. So, you know, who’d want to get along with those guys? Those guys are dirtbags, man.”
