Media Colby Covington now wants to fight Michael Chandler

[El Fernas]

Book it, id watch.

Should move down to LW

colby would school him. chandler is a 1 round glass cannon.

Crazy to think Colby looked so competitive with Edward’s despite being extremely gun shy for 3 rounds.

He wasn't. Leon went for a guillotine in the last round because he wanted a finish and knew he had the fight in the bag. Colby just held top position.

I agree on two conditions. If the UFC makes Covington vs. Chandler both of them need to be removed from their respective rankings, period. Second, the McGregor fight needs to come off the table entirely. I don't mind the fight in and of itself. It's two guys that are literally refusing to fight any ranked guys in their respective divisions. So if they want to waste their time so be it.

If Colby was smart he would’ve tried to make a quick run to the WW title leap frog Belal and push Edward’s seemingly suspect cardio far earlier in a rematch for what seems like a winnable fight…. But no… he wants Micheal Chandler a action LW with suspect cardio

Hes not gonna get to leap frog Belal. He hardly has any moves left to make. He tried to fight Wonderboy and that didnt pan out, so whats left? Leon has no reason to rematch him. He aint gonna fight Shavkat. It looked like Garry was the best option for him but that didnt materialize either. Honestly he doesnt have much realistic options.

Act like a fuckin dickhead and everyone can just ignore you till you go away.

Siddown Colby, you were a b-word & passed on Ian. Let Chandler get some of Islam!

How does Chandler deserve a title shot? Because he was dumb enough to sit on the sidelines waiting for Conor?

Neither of things will happen ,but seriously the second one is even more baffling. There is no reason a the Mcgregor fight has to "come off the table entirely"

Theyll do it whenever they wanna do it.

 

[Dana's Conscience]

why do he want to fight only lightweight

Because he is a LW

it wouldnt be dumb if it resulted in a shot with Islam

He'll fight anyone next but a top 10 welterweight lol, especially one under 35 years old.

Parody fighter.

Bar him from the rankings.

 

[jx820]

I get it. I too would fight an older, smaller, less talented person for a great deal of money.

Colby can't finish a salad, but he'd have a chance of beating Chandler via pacing.

The only exciting round would be Round One, when one of them was actually looking for a TKO lol

Colby wont finish Chandler though

Unless Chandler passed out or something there's no way Colby is finishing him.

If its a 3 rounder, it's a nailed on decision.

Even if Chandler gasses,he wont get the finish I dont think.

Finishing is just not what Colby does.

 

[Rio Ferdinand]

colby trying to get a small lightweight to move up

The man is desperate for a W.

Title shots are determined by the ufc and have Very Little or Nothing to do with merit. PPV and gate sale expectations drive title shots - if you haven't figured that out by now.

 

[JBJ was here]

Make it a "loser's mic gets cut off, permanently" fight and I'd pay to see it.
