Covington: Next weekend you'll see Colby Covington 3.0

Former interim UFC welterweight champion Colby Covington spoke about preparations for the upcoming fight with the current holder of the full title Leon Edwards.

The meeting of these fighters will be the main event of the UFC 296 tournament, which will take place on the night of December 17 in Las Vegas.

“I have improved in every aspect. Jiu-Jitsu has gotten a lot better thanks to my coach Daniel Valverde, he helped me a lot. With striking specialist Cesar Carneiro, we worked great on timing, reflexes, and plan for the upcoming fight.

Fans are in for a real treat next weekend. And, of course, strength and conditioning have reached a new level. I promise you will see Colby Covington 3.0. Not 2.0, but 3.0,” quotes the American Middle Easy.
