Colby Covington is gearing up for his return at UFC 296. He will be taking on Leon Edwards for the welterweight title in the main event in Las Vegas. There has been a lot of talk about how Covington will fare against ‘Rocky’ as we inch closer to the UFC’s last pay-per-view of the year. However, today we’ll take a deep dive into the details of the former interim champion’s dating life.

‘Chaos’ is often in the news for taking shots at other fighters or for getting involved in controversies. But not much is known about the welterweight star’s dating life. However, there was one instance when Colby Covington said something about having a romantic relationship with UFC strawweight star, Polyana Viana. Let’s see what he had to say.

The former interim champion, Colby Covington, was offered to fight Leon Edwards in 2021 on short notice. However, he did not accept that fight, demanding to be paid more. Covington spoke about it on the ‘Submission Radio’ podcast, where mentioned that he was busy romancing Polyana Viana, who was his training partner as well. He said, “There wasn’t much talks [about the Leon Edwards fight]. I was busy b***s deep on Polyana Viana so to get me off the couch on three weeks’ notice to fight some Leon Scott guy, it was going to be a price tag.”

This comment apparently caught the attention of Polyana Viana, who then set the record straight. She mentioned that she and Colby Covington were just friends and that she already had a romantic partner. In addition to that, Viana also mentioned that ‘Chaos’ made an unusual request to her, which she did not agree to do, which led him to get upset. “Colby wanted me to finger him in the a**, but I did not want to. He got upset,” said the strawweight fighter without holding back. But all that was in 2021. What does Covington’s love life look like presently?

Is Covington single or taken?

Colby Covington’s dating life is not something that most people talk about. However, according to ‘Datingcelebs.com‘, he is currently not in a relationship. The 35-year-old has never been engaged in his life and has spent most of his time fighting under the UFC banner. No evidence suggests that Covington has children either.

However, many sources indicate that he had at least one relationship in the past, but the details regarding it are not available to the public. There are many celebrities and athletes, like Colby Covington, who tend to keep their dating and married life a secret. He spends most of his time taking jibes at other people, which sways people away from talking about his personal life.
