Colby Covington seems to cause issues wherever he goes and he recently clashed with Henry Cejudo during a Poker tournament.
Colby Covington is seemingly coming towards the end of his UFC career, having lost his last two fights and getting utterly dominated by Joaquin Buckley last time out.
During his time outside of the Octagon, ‘Chaos’ has been up to his usual antics of winding up fighters, as he recently hid Belal Muhammad’s food at the UFC PI.
The former UFC interim champion has been extremely active live streaming on Kick and this past weekend, he took part in a Poker tournament.
Colby Covington and Henry Cejudo almost come to blows
At the Poker tournament, Covington ran into former UFC double champion, Henry Cejudo, who is also seemingly at the end of his UFC career following disappointing performances.
Cejudo recently had his house broken into and the burglar stole his original UFC belt, which ended up finding its way online where it was being sold.
Covington and Cejudo bumped into each other and proceeded to exchange verbal slurs at each other, coming close to clashing.
“Send him back to the shire,” Covington said as he mocked Cejudo’s height.
“He can’t win s—, he can’t win s—,” Cejudo responded as he mocked Covington not being a UFC champion.
“Double champ, Olympic champ, you ain’t got s—,” Cejudo continued.
“I’ll still knock your ass out you bum, remember you’re a little guy and you’ll get knocked the f— out,” Covington replied.
Fortunately, there were several people surrounding the two UFC stars as they hurled insults at one another, making sure they didn’t actually come to blows.
Will either Covington or Cejudo fight in the UFC again?
Despite both fighters coming off several disappointing losses, neither is expected to call a stop to their UFC career and will both likely fight again.
Cejudo’s last fight ended unceremoniously after he suffered a fight ending eye-poke, and the former double champion wants one last fight.
Covington on the other hand seems less interested in an imminent return and it is unclear who he would fight if he did enter the Octagon once more.
