Colby Covington plans to show the doubters flawed at UFC Tampa.
Covington is about to return to the Octagon for the primary time in a yr when he headlines UFC Tampa in opposition to Joaquin Buckley. The previous interim welterweight champion is coming off a lackluster loss to Leon Edwards in a combat for the promotion’s welterweight title.
With Covington dropping his final combat, and never preventing the way in which he needed to, he says he plans to present the followers a deal with in his bout in opposition to Buckley on Saturday night time.
“After Masvidal, I received one other shot for the undisputed title,” Colby Covington stated on UFC Journey. “The primary kick I threw, I broke it on his elbow, I used to be compromised from the very first spherical, the very first 30 seconds of the combat and I knew it was going to be a tricky night time for me. With a damaged foot in. a giant combat in opposition to a man who needed to take my head off, who’s most likely the toughest combat I’ve ever needed to endure. I do know I’m so a lot better than that. Now, it’s about coming again and giving the followers an actual deal with of who Colby ‘Chaos’ Covington. Folks have tried to put in writing me off, and now it’s about re-writing all these wrongs.”
Covington has an amazing likelihood to remind everybody how good he’s in opposition to Buckley at UFC Tampa. If Covington can pull off the upset, he can be proper again within the title image at welterweight.
