It looked like it was a work, it looks like it was a fix. Maybe Jon Jones' brother went over to France and told Ciryl that, you know, they're gonna pay him under the table to take a dive, because that's honestly what it looked like.
Jones became the new heavyweight champion on March 5 at UFC 285, defeating Ciryl Gane by first-round choke. He has 27 wins and one loss under his belt.
Covington's last fight was against Jorge Masvidal in March 2022, at UFC 272. Colby won that fight by unanimous decision. He has 17 wins and three losses under his belt.
Covington laughs at Makhachev for wanting to fight Edwards Ngannou: Usman has already written his legacy in sports history Dana White on Usman's loss to Edwards: I expected a lot more wrestling out of Kamaru than I saw
