Covington has NO redeeming qualities

I paid attention when he beat Lawler. I paid attention when he went the distance with Usman after getting chewed up. He stifled Masvidal for 5 rounds. Ok I guess. But since then, he's been a bust. He's not fighting in there. He's sparring and surviving. Shame on Edwards too. Shavkat finished his fight like a champ. Sick of these welterweights pussy footing around for 25 minutes. I don't care how technical it was. That's not a fight. Neither guy looked hurt or damaged. After all that talk, that's the best you guys could do? Embarrassing.

In the case of Colby I can think of absolutely nothing, the guy has ZERO likeable traits, nothing.

I held this belief from day one, I never understood how this dude had any fans, but this past weekend was the last straw.

Before one could at least make the case that he fought hard, that he always came to win, so even though he’s the lowest of the low at least he will entertain me in the cage, but now that’s gone too. Then the final nail in the coffin, raising his arms at the end of the fight and pretending to believe he won, all with that stupid smile… just beyond sad and pathetic.

What an absolute garbage human being, if Masvidal snuffed him out that day, if Werdum put him in a permanent coma with that boomerang the world would be a better place.

I think his greatest redeeming quality is he brings everyone together in agreence that he's cringe and we all want to see him violently seperated from his consciousness.

Imagine, Just one fighter ALL of sherdog and "decent people" can root against in harmony.

Isn't it great?

I think talking shit is putting it mildly, when you’re willing to trample on people’s children and dead family members only to further your career and maximize your own profit you have crossed into a whole new territory.

And all that said, i’m still for freedom of speech and certainly would not want the law deciding what one can and cannot say. But I’m also in the talk shit and get hit camp, I can’t stand the type of person who will bark any garbage at someone then call the cops when he gets a reaction, that dude is just a lowlife who deserves zero mercy or sympathy.

i'm all for "talk shit get hit" but masvidal had his chance to hit colby in the ring and he didn't do jack
going over to him in the streets just to sucker punch and run off is cowardly shit, so i dont get all the masvidal simping that happens here in regard to this event, he acted like a bitch

what if masvidal had shot colby instead of just sucker punched him? would you still join the choir of "well, he did talk about his family tho" that would happen here(and we know it would)
 
Boring
Receding hairline
Stutters
Terrible trash talk when he isn’t stuttering
Idiotic political beliefs that he constantly throws in your face
Wrassler


Yeah he basically is everything lame about combat sports rolled into one autistic dork

If that was the case I would agree that Masvidal committed a crime and should probably be in jail, and at the same time I would think he did the world a favor.

I truly dont care for trash talk, but i can certainly understand it is needed to bring in viewership/profits. Covington isnt a very entertaining fighter and his "persona" is rather primitive. If he were a skilled striker, this would be overlooked, even "forgiven". But because he is a tough wrestler with minimal entertaining matches, he will be vigorously criticized.

Not true, Conor was that exciting striker but people still call him out for being a turd.

Not to mention, hes a boring ass fighter. Forget his attitude, I could care less about that. He can't even put up a decent/exciting fight.

Colby has always sucked as a heel and actor, at least he followed if up with solid performances in the cage, now not so much.

Boring....He has no power, he can't hurt anyone on the feet. His wrestling prowess sucks against other wrestlers as well.
 
i can't stand him, but - it's an act. it's obvious. he's not even that good of an actor, you can tell it's all just BS to try to sell fights.

Colby fuck your girl or something?

Can't stand him. He's not charming and funny like Chael. He just comes across as awkward and trying to mean and a bully on purpose to be a heel. It feels super forced. Honestly, Khamzat isn't far off. He's a great fighter but his personality is up there with Colby to me.

Khamzat is a dick and unhinged clown but he isn't cowardly like Colby. Colby talks shit about absolutely everybody often for no reason and then shits himself when confronted in any situation outside of a sanctioned fight or in promotion and then he doesn't accept any responsibility for when people are hostile toward him, he's also incredibly sensitive, even if someone gives him light criticism he takes it as a personal insult and will retort with the most offensive lines he can think of.
 
I largerly agree, at first I enjoyed his shtick at first but it got old, reptitive and stale, he isn't very charismatic or whitty, its all very forced and not natural to him, he often butchers his lines or doesn't pronounce words properly, the inactivity and rank squatting didn't help and outside of that he seems to be a total dick just like his character. It's no wonder the only women he's seen with are prostitutes.

His legacy is going to be shit. Remembered for being a complete douche. He's made some money, and that might be good enough, but the guy goes down as the most pathetic shit talker and least likeable fighter of all time
