Colby Covington Completely Roasts Every Top-15 UFC Welterweight And Lebron James

Colby Covington pulled no punches when giving his opinion on the UFC’s top 15 welterweights.
Covington (17-3 MMA, 12-3 UFC) challenges champion Leon Edwards (21-3 MMA, 13-2 UFC) in Saturday’s UFC 296 headliner at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN2 and early prelims on ESPN+.
Ahead of his third crack at undisputed gold, Covington broke down the best fighters in the welterweight division in a video segment with the UFC. Naturally, he raved about himself.
“No. 1, Colby Covington. The greatest welterweight fighter in the history of the sport,” Covington said. “It’s unprecedented, unmatched what Colby brings to the octagon. He’s unbeatable. He’s the cardio machine. He has a third lung.
“He’s Donald Trump’s favorite fighter. He’s America’s champion, people’s champion. The list goes on and on. The king of Miami, all these titles. I don’t know what to do. My shelf is, like, full. What am I going to do with my undisputed world title Dec. 16?”
As far as what Covington had to say about the rest of the welterweights in the UFC rankings, it went exactly how you’d expect - with the exception of a little bit of love for Gilbert Burns.
