The controversies of Colby covington they don't stop. After insulting Brazil and Brazilian fans, the welterweight turned his machine gun on the welterweight champion Tyron woodley. The two trained together when Woodley represented the American Top Team in Florida (he still works with ATT coaches, but holds his camps in Milwaukee). And Covington guarantees that he got the better of the belt owner when the two sparred together.

In an interview with Impact Wrestling's YouTube channel, the American said that his former training partner has been giving lame excuses not to face him, hiding the real reason for being “running away”: the result of training between the two.
“Man, he makes a lot of excuses. But he doesn't want to tell the whole world the real reason why he doesn't want to face me. Tyron woodley He doesn't want to fight me because I broke him the last time we trained together. And I will do the same thing in front of the whole world when we fight for the welterweight title. I'm the real money fight for you, Woodley. You’ve already fought number one and number two and I’m next,” said Covington.
After the dominant victory over Demian Maia No. UFC Sao Paulo, “Chaos” jumped to third place in the welterweight rankings and put himself close to a title shot. However, his comments about Brazilians aroused the ire of some local fighters, such as Erick silva e Warlley alves, the latter being responsible for Covington's only defeat in Ultimate.
