Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington’s rivalry
At UFC 272, former best friends Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington finally got the chance to settle their rivalry in the octagon. The pair used to be teammates at American Top Team. But after Colby won the interim title, he started having disputes with his teammates. Later on, he left his old team after getting into a beef with his ex-best friend Jorge Masvidal at ATT. The duo went from being best friends to bitter rivals.
At UFC 272 Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington went toe-to-toe with each other for five rounds. Colby Covington used his elite wrestling to nullify Jorge Masvidal’s wrestling. Colby Covington won the fight via decision. After the fight was over Jorge Masvidal has stated that he wouldn’t mind taking shots at Colby in the streets.
“Ah f*cking, like I said none of it is personal but it just sucks because this idiot talked about my kids, you know? He’s still somebody if I see him out in the streets I’m gonna give him everything I got to break his f*cking jaw, you know? It doesn’t matter if I lost wrestling scrambles tonight. I still think he’s a f*cking p*ssy, you know?”
Colby Covington also wasn’t ready to squash their beef after getting the win instead he wanted Jorge to leave Miami.
“I’m the king of Miami now,” Covington told reporters during the post-fight news conference at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. “Jorge needs to leave the city. It’s not big enough for the two of us. He needs to leave, or he’s gonna get sparked again.”
Now since their recent street brawl, Jorge Masvidal shared a video in which he was asking Colby Covington to show his face as even Jogre had few marks on his face.
More reports regarding this incident will be coming out soon.
