Interview with Colby Covington above
Colby Covington (17-3) discusses his potential welterweight title fight against Leon Edwards (21-3, NC). Covington also spoke about being the backup for UFC 286, Conor McGregor coaching “The Ultimate Fighter” and Belal Muhammad implying Covington got the title shot because of his skin color.
“(Belal) was saying the only reason (I’m getting the title shot) is because I’m white. How is that not racist? That is disgusting. That is despicable, that is f*****g disgusting, man. I would never say that and use someone’s color of their skin by that’s why they got that done. Disgusting, man. He should literally be fined and kicked out of the UFC.”
