Media Colby Covington consider moving to 185 and target Sean Strickland.

[JBJ was here]

This fight for me would be a dream come true


could you imagine if they both double KO'd each other

Colby couldn't KO a .4 BAC quadriplegic.

colby is delusional. sean is way bigger, way tougher, and would walk threw fucking anything colby tried to throw at him. easy win for sean imo

How does this ass clown have more press pumping out than the guy who whipped his ass just a month ago. Sad.

 

[w00t]

He's a small WW. He should be going in the other direction to LW.

 

[Mammothman]

Desperate

 

[TITS]

Sounds like he should fight Cowboy Cerrone instead

Colby is planting the seed. He heard Cowboy was coming out of retirement to fight at 185, so he makes a ridiculous request to fight Strickland that he knows is never going to happen, so the matchmakers say "how about Cowboy" then Colby gets a layup. But juiced Cowboy might just fuck Colby up with body kicks and Muay Thai clinches.

Colby Covington has a 0.01% chance of winning a fight vs. Sean Strickland. He would need for Strickland to slip and injure his knee or something similar. And Strickland is not a kick-boxer. He is a pressure boxer who uses the Philly shell to be defensive while advancing forward. Strickland has the reach and the skills to easily dominate that fight. Colby is not a good striker and Strickland beat the snot out of Izzy Adesanya who is one of the best strikers in UFC history.

This would've been a good and competitive fight around 2017 when Strickland lost to Usman at WW. Sean is better suited to MW (probably drained himself cutting to 170) and Colby was in his prime then--while Sean was still fine-tuning his style. At his best. Colby was the true cardio machine, with both wrestling and very high striking output, though his striking wasn't powerful or very technical. Still, it was hard for other fighters (besides Usman) to match his pace, and Colby has always been very durable with a great chin.

Colby has slowed down a lot and would be a sparring dummy for Sean at this point. Best case he gets 1 or 2 TDs but can't hold Sean down for any length of time. Even DDP couldn't keep Sean on the ground for long, and he's much stronger and bigger than Colby.

Battle for king of the cringelords

That would look like a rough match of Paddycakes

Colby should consider a move to PowerSlap. He'd be the best jobber ever.

 

[RockyLockridge]

-Loses to former middleweight who had less success at middleweight
-Decides to move to middleweight where he’ll be even smaller than his opponents at Welterweight.

no one accused colby of being smart

Colby can handle things. He's smart, not like everybody says, like dumb. He's smart and he wants respect!

 

[SuperNerd]

Garbage shit

 

[Alpha_T83]

Colby should move to retirement. It's over.

 

[Morris88]

RUMORED: Colby will never actually fight at 185 in the UFC.

I could see him fighting Conor at MW

 

[Sasha]

Really he should retire, for my own good.

 

[egk]

Colby just got dominated by a guy who was chased out of MW because he was too small. He's simply delusional.

 

[xentreos]

Id love that fight, watching Strickland beat him senseless would be a joy. It'd look like one of Stricklands sparring sessions from YouTube.

Hoping for a double KO from pillow fisted chinwag artists
