“I used to hit him a lot during training on the day. I mean, I spent years beating him up. He literally left the gym crying. He said, 'I can't beat him because his cardio is good and he keeps beating me.' I already embarrassed him. He knows who the 'daddy' is, who the real champion is and who is better. I wouldn't even care (if I didn't face him in the Octagon),” said Covington in an interview with Jame Lynch's YouTube channel.
Despite experiencing similar moments, a possible fight between the athletes, however, may not happen. In the end, Dustin poirier comes from a defeat in the lightweight title fight (up to 70,3kg.) against Charles of the Bronx and never played at welterweight (up to 77kg.).
