Interim UFC welterweight champion Colby Covinton has drawn the ire of several fight fans and fighters as of late. Now the fighter has come forward with a new criticism concerning the World Cup semi-finals loss of Brazil’s national team.
Covington perhaps first cultivated controversy within the mixed martial arts world when he called Brazil a “dump” and the arena crowd “filthy animals” at UFC Sao Paulo back in 2017. Since then, Covington has expanded his trash-talking to any that cross his path.
Taking to Twitter, Covington has now decided to offer a slight to Brazil’s national soccer team for losing the World Cup semi-finals to Belgium 2 to 1. Check it out below:
“Rough month south of the equator huh? #brabel #nerdbash2018”
