MMA-världen hyllar Colby Covington
Nedan kan ni se reaktionerna under matchens gång:
I’m rooting for Jorge, but I think Covington’s wrestling and gas tank will get it done. Colby may be the Cringe God, but he’s also a gamer and relentless worker. His wrestling and pace makes him a tough out for anyone in the welterweight division! #UFC272

Jorge looks tired after 2 rounds #ufc272

Colby’s striking output has been different so far. Likely because of their training history. #UFC272

The better wrestler always wins. @ColbyCovMMA

2-1 Covington, might be 3-0. Colby is just so exhausting, constantly trying to advance positions on the ground. He’s wearing on Jorge with each round. #UFC272

@ColbyCovMMA vs @GamebredFighter 2 needs to happen! @UFC

Covington’s biggest asset is his gas tank. Just wears out his opponents over time. Wrestling like that can only be achieved at the highest levels. Unless you’re at that level of wrestling knowledge and experience, you’re not stopping his takedowns. #UFC272

That shoulda been for the BMF belt #ufc272
