What do you guys think of Colby Covington as a fighter?

[Goh]

Until a days ago I hadn't seen a fight of his, but I watched a few and I think he's actually pretty good, his wrestling and defensive jujitsu aren't bad at all. I just knew of him for sounding like an asshole and a pussy at the same time from altercations with Werdum etc. What do you guys think of his fighting ability?

 

[JayJayFrench]

I don't. He's a twitter warrior above anything else.

 

[LongDongSilver]

Shit ..

 

[Don'tBeScaredHomie]

Bang average

 

[Brit_Brawler]

He's not spectacular but hes pretty good. I feel he's like chael, a decent fighter who's mouth is far bigger than his talent( I believe he is more skilled than chael though)

 

[Snolla]

Standard wrestler with no hands but enough defensive ability to grind out wins. Boring to watch but impressive wrestling.

 

[BlankaPresident]

Boring.

He is good, has dominant wrestling but is very overranked (is that a word?) due to his win over Maia. He belongs in the 6-10, not top 5.

Two minutes into Covington fight.

 

[Dirge]

Boring.

Covington is ranked 7th on Sherdog rankings mate. UFC ranks are a joke.

A bum...Got beat by a boomerang

 

[Reach4theSky]

As soon as he faces a top 5 not named Maia, he'll get exposed, and everyone will have a good laugh...

 

[Mr. Jamie Cee]

As one dimensional as they come in 2018.

 

[Just Creed]

His last couple fights have been pretty boring but he is definitely a superior wrestler. Not a fan though. No charisma and boring to watch

healthy Guida

 

[Guy LeDouche]

He isn't exciting to watch, above average wrestling and sloppy striking. Never really impressed me at anytime.
However....his Twitter-fu is strong

 

[TheHNICuLuv2Hate]

Colby is great at hugging if nothing else

 

[Blond]

On one hand 8-1 in the UFC is quite special, at the same Jacob volkman and G-sot also had long winning streaks at some point. Colby is a pretty standard wrestler and i would not be surprised to see him go on a losing streak.

 

[Bestonian]

P4P most boring fighter ever.

 

[Paynebringer]

Rather average to me lucky 3 ranking and undeserved.
