"What is Colby fighting for today? What's motivating him? It looks like it's big fights. But to do that, you have to beat a guy who is considered a prospect, and it doesn't matter what he thinks of Ian. After the Edwards fight, he may have another long and hard puncher waiting for him. The time for talking is over, it's time to get down to business.
When he talked about Kamaru Usman, he got the fight with him. When he talked about Leon Edwards, he was given that fight as well. Now it's time to face the young prospect. Colby has to accept this challenge. If Covington wins, then we can cast our eyes on the division leaders again," Cormier said on his YouTube channel.
