Colby Covington: 'I Know I’m the Best Welterweight on Earth'

[Equinox Shadow]

Nope, not even close. Barely top 10, if that.

 

[WildShrimper]

He had nothing for Leon, even without a broken foot. Can we stop pretending?

 

[SkinnyClaw]

If he really had a broken foot the entire fight, then he did very well against Leon, especially the way he ended strong in round 5. If it had been someone like Khabib or GSP who fought like that, and after the fact it came out they only had one foot, people would give them props for pushing through it and staying in there till the end

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

He seems more of a Barry Manilow kinda guy, tbh

No doubt he's not cultured in bangers

 

[VinceArch]

Go away Colby.

 

[oski]

The Colby hate is really hysterical.

It's like hating a prowrestler... marking the fuck out... lol!

Does Colby have delusions of grandeur?

Will have to see his next scrap or two to decide where he falls in my MMA schematic. Personally I feel he has fallen off and sat out too much but wouldn't be the 1st time I was completely off base.

The banter and cockiness really mean nothing to me. Most of the time when fighters go on the rant route or play word games all I hear is Charlie Brown's teacher.

Let's see now......Colby....hmmm.

LOST to Usman TWICE
LOST to Edwards recently (got totally dominated).
LAST 5 Colby fights : won 2, lost 3 (0.400 record), hardly the stuff of a Champ.
Plus Edwards has beaten Usman TWICE in the last 1.5years.

Short version :
As usual Colby is All Tent and No Circus.

 

[Kryptt]

Well MMA fighters get some of the best...

 

[BOTTICELLI]

Dude's act is old, he couldn't beat the top guys, UFC should use him as a gatekeeper now, he is washed up.

Plus he fights every 18 months and is not what I would call an active fighter by any stretch

 

[Senzo Tanaka]

There's nothing worse than someone bragging and not backing it up. I'm not even sure Colby is even top 10 based on that performance much less best on Earth. Just beyond cringe at this point.

 

[Bobby Boulders]

No doubt he's not cultured in bangers

"PLAAAAAAAYA PLAY OOOOON, I CANT HATE YOU HOOOMIIIIIIIIIIIIE!!!"

 

[FloydMayweatherMMA]

Cool. Fight Shavkat whilst he's waiting for Leon and prove it.

 

[JoeRowe]

Cool. Fight Shavkat whilst he's waiting for Leon and prove it.

I feel like Usman deserves the Khamzat fight if he wants it. If not Colby would be cool & I think the UFC will offer it if Usman says no & Neal beats Garry. If Garry wins he has already made it clear that he wants Colby next & I'm inclined to believe that Dana will oblige Garry. Colby vs Garry under Conor/Chandler @ IFW would be wild.

Edit: And by Khamzat I mean Shavkat

 

[Davidjacksonjones]

Colby is a pussy

Usman and Khamzat are middleweights now. They should be fighting ranked middleweights. Having them rematch each other doesn't move either of them up the division.

 

[Uber_Noober]

Colby cuts a pro wrasslin’ promo and Sherdog melts down like the hosts on the view.

If he was the best he would've besten Usman or Leon for one of his many underserved title shots.

Hell if he was the best he would've beaten a contender to deserve one of those shots.
