Islam vs Colby?

Great idea, especially considering how deserving Colby was of all his 0-3 title shots.

"Colby had a decently competitive fight with Buckley"

"Consensus second best ever WW after Usman"

"He likely beats Morales, and a fight with him & Shavkat is 50-50"

Colby fans are all either retards or trolls. There's no exception.

It's def trolling lol

With a guy like Colby, it almost begs for it.
 
Crazy to think, not long ago, Colby was seen as the solid Number 2 to Kamaru's Number 1. Now, some years later, Kamaru the older fighter with "bad knees" is still relevant and Colby is a borderline early prelim/prelim guy.
 
Is Colby still ranked? I'm a fan of the guy but he's not in contention, at all.
 
Colby is pretty much ducking all of WW at this point
 
4-5 years ago this fight would have been interesting but colby allowed himself to regress.
 
in case you guys don't know...

vagabond is colby covingtons account
 
Colby had a decently competitive fight with Buckley, and finished strong. This leads me to believe he still has something in the tank.
What fucking fight were you watching? He did absolutely nothing

"and he's the consensus second best ever WW after Usman, and best ever fighter not to win an undisputed title."

Retarded take on all 3 counts


"He also did us a massive solid letting Masvidal (and Werdum?) off the hook, after being viciously assaulted. It wouldn't be a stretch to say the sport, and us all, owe him, in some manner."

No, that shit is on Masvidal not the rest of us. Save that bullshit for the birds

"He likely beats Morales, and a fight with him & Shavkat is 50-50. Remember, he's the second best WW after Usman who was competitive with Chimaev. By my calculations, he's only slightly under Chimaev who just dominated DDP."

By my calculations you're using retarded mental gymnastics or outright trolling. Covington has been taken down by RDA, Woodley and Leon fucking Edwards. I fear what Islam would do to either of those 3. He's not that good of an MMA wrestler.

The only fights I'd confidently pick Covington in at this point are Neil Magny, Daniel Rodriguez and maybe at a stretch Gilbert Burns. Anyone else fucks him up easily enough

Should Colby be in the mix for the next shot, and how will he fare against this version of Islam? His wrestling and cardio can cause serious issues, and he's the consensus second best ever WW after Usman, and best ever fighter not to win an undisputed title.

Book it Dana!
Promoting yourself Colby?
 
I suspect we are never going to see Colby fight again
 
Covington only goes after washed and non-threatening opponents, he must be really disheartened by the state of the welterweight division.

My guess is that he calls out Burns, or goes after Wonderboy again like when he called him out after he was choked out by Shavkat.
