Keeping an eye on the main fight of UFC 296, Michael Bisping revealed that he expects the 'most dangerous version' of Colby covington in the welterweight title fight (under 77,1kg). On your channel YouTube, the commentator indicated that the title challenger will live an 'ultimatum' in front of the champion Leon edwards. The outcome could define the future of 'Chaos' in professional MMA.
“He (Covington) is 36 years old. It's his last title fight. That simple. It's his third chance to fight for the title. He fought twice with Kamaru Usman and was unable to do the job. He was knocked out once and defeated on points afterwards. They were competitive fights, but it didn't matter. He didn’t become champion,” Bisping said.
