And I shook my head and he said, ‘Come here.’ And I said, ‘Oh, shit, it’s on. He was super cool. And I walked to him and said, ‘Oh, shit, it’s on.’” Aside from frequenting casinos, Covington has of course been kept busy with legal issues in recent times, stemming from being sucker-punched by longtime rival Masvidal last year. And I was just like, ‘Man, look at this guy.’” But a select few fighters have caught glimpses of his true character and have astonished fans with tales of Colby’s genuine personality. And I was passing by and I looked in there and said, there’s Colby over there. But there remains one 170-pound stalwart who Burns is yet to face, namely Colby Covington. The victory was all the sweeter as it came in the Brazilian’s hometown of Rio de Janeiro, which hosted the UFC for the first time since the COVID-19 outbreak. Burns now looks on track to make another run at the welterweight title.
