Legendary referee John McCarthy shared his opinion about the former contender for the UFC welterweight championship belt Colby Covington.
āCovington simplyĀ cannot reach the level of a champion. HeĀ simply cannot reach that pinnacle. There will be people who will say thatĀ he had a temporary title. The interim title is no nonsense, but itās not a real belt because thereās someone else whoās actually better with the regular title,ā the referee said.
Let's remember that at UFC 296, Covington missed another chance to become a champion, losing to Leon Edwards by unanimous decision.
