Colby Covington’s Strategy Isn’t Working, Average Joes Are Destroying Him In Droves On Twitter

Somewhere along the line, UFC welterweight fighter Colby Covington thought he would bring back the Chael Sonnen vs. Brazil feud, but in his own way, and with his own twist.

Unfortunately though, fans are not flocking to hear his every word like they did when Chael Sonnen was surging through the middleweight division with his eyes set on Anderson Silva.

Instead, Covington’s run in with Fabricio Werdum in Australia, that saw him hit in the face with a boomerang, only to react by pressing charges with local police, hindered his street cred, and sent his strategy to enrage the masses on a downward spiral.

Now, it’s rare to see the top UFC fighter get any type of respect from fight fans, who more often blast him on twitter, than praise him for his brash new style of trash talk.

We’ve put together some of the hits Colby receives from his fans, and they’re downright mean. But hey, we’re talking about him, so there’s that.
