2021 Non-Event General MMA Talk Thread


The Natural

Recommended Posts

Colby Covington has said that he wants the winner of Masvidal / Edwards so that he can put himself back in contention for another title shot.   It sounds like Colby is just talking shit to keep the gimmick going, though.  Who knows if he's really serious?  Mathematically, beating the guy that takes or keeps the #3 ranking doesn't do anything for you if you are the top contender.

and especially not if you've fought the champ twice and lost both times, one by stoppage. Covington will likely get the Masvidal/Edwards loser.

Best case for Colby is Leon wins and goes to fight Usman, and Colby fights Masvidal in a money fight, while hoping Leon can take the title. 

Worst case is the right case - he fights Gilbert Fucking Burns, whose name was absent from Colby's mouth during the post fight presser.

Now he wants Khamzat Chimaev.
