Media Colby Covington wants to fight Charles Oliveira, says he has "better jiu-jitsu"

[duke_droese]

He should have said my American Jiu Jitsu shits all over his Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

 

[Fatback96]

Colby has no intention of fighting actual ranked Welterweights unless they’re pre-retirement.

I don’t think this guy should be in the UFC at all at this point. He hasn’t beaten anyone ranked, or anyone in his own current division.

This man is getting cucked by the cuck. I didn't think Colby could stoop any lower but he keeps proving me wrong.

 

[Flower2dPeople]

Moicano is going to compete in a grappling tournament on May 15. If Colby is confident with his BJJ skills, he should challenge Oliveira there.

 

[Pechan]

The ducking of Ian Machado is sad to see.

Colby is pathetic.

 

[NoSmilez]

Colby is just looking for a headline fight. I don't think he is willing to entertain contenders.

Colby is just looking for a headline fight. I don't think he is willing to entertain contenders.

Then send him to BKFC so he can get his jaw broken by Platinum Mike

 

[JoeRowe]

I've been calling for this fight since Colby lost to Leon. I think it's a great fight for both but Oliveira is so much more dangerous, I think he taps Colby.

I know it doesn't make sense but I want it to happen just so I can take credit for manifesting it lol

 

[dipstickjimmy]

Colby claiming to have better BJJ than Oliveira isn't even on brand for his character.

It is 100% on Brand. Its a complete bold faced lie that he knows is false but says with a straight face. I would be on board with this fight if they do it at LW. Colby needs to get ignored by everyone in and around MMA. Begs for a fight with the legit #1 contender to try and get another undeserved title shot and then begs to fight a FW/LW. All after refusing a fight with an actual WW that is primarily a striker. Best style he can hope for but since he doesn't have a size advantage to boost his EPO-style wrestle-aerobics he runs away.

Good fight

Every Colby news thread could just be titled "Colby Covington says things while ducking contenders" ever since 2022. Why are we giving this loser attention?

 

[marvinparsons]

Colby is a loser, let him rot. No interest after his last "performance."

 

[JKS]

Colby would get massacred here.

 

[arcadeperfect]

One of the most overrated fighters ever. Should be removed from the rankings altogether.

 

[Elvis.]

Everything about this statement is idiotic

 

[svmr_db]

Colby would get massacred here.

Not picking a winner but Colby does have a good chin and obviously still decent wrestling despite clearly being on the decline. Not hard to see him possibly having success lay and praying Oliveira to a snoozer decision given how content Oliveira is to try to win off his back.

 

[TempleoftheDog]

Colby should go to LFA.

You could have left out the “to LFA” part.

Colby should go.. That’s good enough.

 

[Morris88]

Fuck this guy. 2 wins in the last 5 years and he's calling out LWs. Why the fuck would Charles fight him.

 

[TimeToTrain]

Colby thinks he will out jiujitsu Oliviera like what Matt Hughes did to Royce
