Colby Covington has no finishing skills

[GreatSaintGuillotine]

He's basically Khabib, with worse striking, weaker punches, no wrist / ankle control, no submission skills at all.

So nothing like Khabib the. Lol.

Yeah Colby is all about pinning on the cage, throwing heavy volume, and stalling out holds rather then subbing.

 

[Domitian]

Buckley is going to finish him. You can bank on that shit.

 

[KarateYeah]

I'll have to ask Polyana Viana

 

[Söze Aldo]

I'd say he has better striking than Khabib but otherwise you're right. And he's probably past his prime. I got Buckley in this one. He will have 25 minutes to land a big shot.

He's technically a better kickboxer than Khabib, but he generates no power. I don't think Colby's ever gotten a knockdown on someone like Khabib got on Conor (correct me if I'm wrong).

Cody gets clipped and put away early.

 

[Brigfa2]

Tell that to Woodley's broken ribs

Only a GOAT like Colby would make his opponent scream of pain

 

[Bork Neslar]

Fishing skills?

 

[skylolow]

Is anyone claiming he has finishing skills?

 

[IIIIIIII]

colby's done if he doesn't take advantage of trump being president again. his trump angle is relative once more. if i were him, i'd get in the best shape possible and hype a fight with the biggest name around. beginning next year, trump is going to be everywhere, and if colby can maintain the connection with him he'll do well financially.

though as a fighter, he's done. get one more in, maybe two, and ride off into the sunset and see what money can be made social media, hollywood, etc.

 

[shunyata]

He fucking wishes he was like Khabib lmao

what a shit comparison.

Saying Colby is basically Khabib should be a bannable offense.

 

[Asako]

You stand to make good money then, Colby is a big underdog currently.

My state doesn't allow online betting.

 

[Captain Insano]

I never understood how he didn't develop a better submission or GNP game with his wrestling background.

Marty too.

They would wrestle and strike but not both together and no submissions.

 

[Natural Order]

Correct.

 

[tritestill]

Buckley via Knock Out or Colby Via Decision...really going out on a limb with those bold picks.

 

[Clark Rogers]

I don't disagree. Colby really surprised, even impressed me when he beat Lawler the way he did, as disappointed as i was for Lawler. But, it was apparent that he didn't really have KO power, just volume.

 

[filthybliss]

He doesn’t fight enough for me to say confidently
