UFC 219 headliner Cris Cyborg, and Brazil antagonist Colby Covington have started a feud on twitter on the eve of Cyborg’s biggest fight.
Covington, the brash and controversial UFC welterweight, took issue with Cyborg using the UFC 219 media to promote a teddy bear charity, basically saying, ‘Why wait for the cameras to come around to show you’re a good person.’
The UFC female featherweight champion took issue with these remarks, and that’ when things took a personal turn.
Check it out:
Haha. @ColbyCovMMA throwing some shade @criscyborg’s way. Fantastic. I hope @HollyHolm breaks her stupid face on Saturday. #UFC219

Someone should tell him My team produces an entire video series fight week. I’ll help him promote his next community outreach opportunity. Somehow I missed his last one

All that hot garbage is produced by nerds pushing a fake narrative. They’re trying to make all the virgin sheep forget about your history of being a steroid abuser. #ufc219
