MMA News<\/a>, Neil Magny slammed Masvidal for his alleged actions.<\/p>\n\u201cThat was just to me like taking a step in the other direction. Here you have some athletes doing great things and then you get some nonsense like that take place kind of like makes the sport as a whole look bad. We\u2019ve gotten so far away from like a bunch of meatheads just fighting in a cage era to being like elite athletes that are competing in a cage against one another. So for him to do something like that just takes it back to like the old school primitive days of MMA in my opinion.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\nMasvidal and Covington have had bad blood for a while now. The two were former friends, roommates, and teammates. They trained together under American Top Team.<\/p>\n
Things turned sour once Colby started to grow his MAGA shtick. Masvidal claims his friendship with Covington ended after “Chaos” refused to pay a beloved coach what he was owed. Covington denies that story and says the issues stem from Masvidal’s jealousy.<\/p>\n
Masvidal is due in court on April 21 at 9 a.m. ET. The charges he is facing are both felony charges. The more serious of the two is aggravated battery with a mask, which has a maximum sentence of 15 years in prison.<\/p>\n
