Colby Covington is not a fan of Dustin Poirier.<\/p>\n

Covington and Poirier had a public feud<\/a> as the two took shots at one another in the lead-up and after Dustin lost to Khabib Nurmagomedov. It has only grown since then as “The Diamond” said it would be <\/a>on sight\u00a0when he saw Covington, however, “Chaos” says that was never the case.<\/p>\n

Instead, he says Poirier is a fake person and blasted the lightweight contender for a scam of a charity.<\/p>\n

“Dustin Soirier (Poirier), he’s terrible, he’s garbage. I used to train with him, the guys a complete bum. I mean, he’s funny because he’s talking all this talk, it’s on sight when I see Colby. No, it’s not on sight, bitch, you know who your daddy is,” Colby Covington said to James Lynch<\/a>. “Oh yeah, and talking about Dustin, I thought that fight should’ve gotten canceled, man. Con man McGregor called out Dustin for the truth, he’s using his charity to make money for himself, it’s a tax write-off.<\/p>\n

“He’s not actually using that money for kids, he knows Conor McGregor knows Dustin Soirier is literally a Con man,” Covington continued. “He’s conning the people with this so-called charity, Good Fight Foundation. Dude, guys the fakest guy in the world. I wish people really knew who Dustin Soirier was not just who they portray him as in the media.”<\/p>\n

Although Covington claims Poirier’s charity is a tax write-off, that isn’t proven. Poirier has done a lot of good for his community and uses his charity to help people in Louisiana, so there appears to be no truth behind what Covington is saying.<\/p>\n

However, there is no question Covington knows Poirier better than most and he doesn’t like him and believes he is fake.<\/p>\n

What do you make of Colby Covington saying Dustin Poirier’s charity is only a tax write-off and for him to make money?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
