Colby Covington and Tyron Woodley share one of the biggest rivalries in all of MMA. The two seemingly hate each other and looked destined to fight after Covington won the interim welterweight title in June of 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, Woodley has since lost the UFC welterweight title, having given up a decision to Kamaru Usman at UFC 235. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colby Covington recently let the former champ having it for ruining their grudge match with a a loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe luster is taken off of it,\u201d Covington told MMANews<\/a> about facing Woodley now. \u201cHe was this invincible guy who was claiming to be the best welterweight of all time, which we all know was complete lies cause he\u2019s a fake f\u2014ker. It just had so many different angles in it. The red versus blue. He\u2019s a liberal, I\u2019m a Republican. There\u2019s so many different ways the fight could go. Ex-teammates, we literally hate each other, that wasn\u2019t a fake beef. \u2018Marty Snoozeman\u2019 tried to manufacture a beef with Woodley but there was no beef there. They were actually friends, they were cool and they actually liked each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere was real beef with me and Woodley and we wanted to settle our differences,” he continued. “I beat his ass every day at American Top Team for three or four years and this was his chance in front of the whole world to try and get me back. But it wasn\u2019t going to happen. I was going to do what \u2018Marty Snoozeman\u2019 did but I was going to do worse. I was going to take him to deep waters, get him all tired and finish him.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colby Covington can now look forward to a title fight with Kamaru Usman. Depending on how this fight goes, it’s possible that he and Woodley could meet down the line. Yet he feels the matchup has lost most of its appeal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHe had his shot. I told him don\u2019t f\u2014k this up \u2018Tyquil\u2019, don\u2019t f\u2014k this up,\u201d Covington stated. \u201cYou don\u2019t need to take this fight. You didn\u2019t need to take the Darren Till fight. All you had to do was wait one month for me. This is all his doing.\u201d’<\/p>\n\n\n\n
