Stalwart color-commenator, Joe Rogan has claimed that whereas in his opinion, former interim welterweight title challenger, Colby Covington is a “grasp” at irking out his opponents forward of combat evening, that technique blew up in his face throughout his UFC 296 title siege towards Leon Edwards final month.
Covington, a former interim welterweight champion and now-three-time undisputed divisional title challenger, suffered a one-sided unanimous resolution loss to Birmingham technician, Edwards of their UFC 296 title grudge match.
Joe Rogan befuddled by Colby Covington’s UFC 296 show
And receiving mass criticizm after focusing on Edwards’ slain father within the pre-fight build-up between the 2, Covington’s efficiency on the mic backed him right into a nook towards a “sharp” Edwards, and finally blew up in his proverbial face.
“Colby (Covington) talked a lot sh*t,” Joe Rogan mentioned on his podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience. “It was f*cked up. That’s Colby. He’s the grasp at getting underneath individuals’s pores and skin, however I believe in that combat it backfired. He didn’t look good.”
“I used to be impressed with Leon (Edwards),” Joe Rogan defined. “I believe that the issue is that Colby combat is Leon. He was so harmful. He was so sharp. He’s so technical on the ft.”
Focusing on a slew of fights for his comeback to the Octagon, outspoken Clovis native, Covington has name-dropped the likes of former multiple-time title challenger, Stephen Thompson, in addition to unbeaten Irish starlet, Ian Garry – once again poking fun at the Dubliner’s relationship with his wife and manager, Layla Anna-Lee.
“There may be one man that may be a reliable cuck and I’ve known as him out for that,” Colby Covington mentioned of Ian Garry throughout a current interview. “I discovered that this had occurred, the ladies as promoting a e book known as ‘WAG’ – which implies ‘wifes and girlfriends’. So, she was selling that she had a boyfriend and she or he had a husband. It shouldn’t be allowed, it’s fairly nasty behaviour.”
“He was fairly offended,” Colby Covington defined. “I believe he in all probability needs to settle the variations within the Octagon, and it simply so occurs, I prefer to combat within the Octagon,” Colby Covington defined. “So, if it must occur someday, I’d be honored to settle that.”
