Colby Covington is one of the most brutal trash-talkers in the UFC. Once he starts, he barely holds his tongue until the one listening to his verbal assault is done for. After getting the better of Jorge Masvidal at UFC 272, he went after those who supported ‘Gamebred’.

‘Chaos’ took a shot at Canadian pop sensation Drake for wagering a whopping sum of $250k in Bitcoin on Masvidal to get a payout of $1 Million.
At the UFC 272 post-fight press conference, Covington plugged in a brand he endorses and said, “Let’s talk about all the money that Drake lost tonight. He needs to go back to selling all those shi**y albums to get back the money. He should’ve went to America’s pick of the week by MyBookie.”

“I tried to give the people the pick of the week. I am America’s champ and I was America’s pick of the week. Drake, you s*ck at sports betting, go back to your shi**y little albums and rapping.”
It remains to be seen if Drake will actually respond to this call out by the #1 ranked fighter. Or maybe his friend, whom he supported against Khabib Nurmagomedov at UFC 229, Conor McGregor, will be the one answering the question.
After beating Jorge Masvidal, Colby Covington calls out Dustin Poirier
Colby Covington, after getting his hands raised at UFC 272, was quick to name-drop “Louisiana Swamp trash…Dustin Poirier”, who happens to be a former teammate of his at the American Top Team.
‘The Diamond’ and ‘Chaos’ go way back and have traded barbs multiple times ever since Covington left the gym. This time, at UFC 272, after telling longtime UFC commentator Joe Rogan how much he respected him, Covington called out Poirier.
The 34-year-old welterweight left no stones unturned in giving Poirier a headache as he included Poirier’s wife and child in his message.
