“He is a coward. You know he is a fake person. He stands there and acts like this soft-hearted dude. Then he gets behind a camera and is a total coward and a fake person. I’ve never met anyone as fake as Colby Covington. And yeah, as a man I would love to slap him across his face.”
‘The Highlight’ is one of the many people who have accused Covington of being two-faced. Covington recently spoke in an interview and said that Justin was reckless and critiqued his style of fighting. This does not seem to have gone down well with the interim lightweight champion, as he prepares for the biggest fight of his career.
