the american Colby covington doesn't seem to get tired of getting involved in controversies. This time, the athlete seems to have aimed high and provoked the wife of Stipe Mioicic, owner of the UFC heavyweight belt (up to 120,2 kg). Knowing what happened, Stipe, who revealed that he did not know the content of the conversation between 'Chaos' and his companion, said that he will have a conversation with the loudmouth, but said that it will not be violent. The statement was made in a recent interview with the radio program '77WABC'.

“I'm a little upset with that kid. He was saying things to my wife after my fight (UFC 241, against Daniel Cormier). Maybe I have to talk to him about this. I'm not trying to start anything here. I'm just saying I want a normal conversation. I'm not going to take his head off. I just want to talk like a normal person,” Stipe said.
Little by little, Colby has become a fighter who has gathered a lot of enemies through his incisive, provocative and, at times, disrespectful statements. The athlete, who is close to becoming the challenger for the title of his category, which today belongs to Kamaru Usman, despite his casual style, qualified to compete for the welterweight belt (77kg.) against the Nigerian.
Although he confirmed that he was upset with his compatriot, Miocic said that his wife and his manager, who was nearby when the incident occurred, did not want to reveal what was said between the parties, perhaps to preserve the psychological well-being of the heavyweight, who had just retake their lost title in 2018.
“My wife was walking to the octagon and I think he said something to her and my manager told him to shut up. After that day, my manager didn't tell me what he said to her, but I'm going to find out. I'm very good. I am an agent of the FBI (United States Department of Justice Agency). I'm going to find out what he said and I'm going to talk to him about it”, declared Miocic.
For the heavy, the case does not need to be resolved with violence. The athlete stated that he is a passive man and that he just wants to clarify the facts so that there are no future problems.
“I'm a normal guy. I don't want to rip his head off. I just want to talk about it”, concluded the fighter.
