Burns gave a bold prediction for the Masvidal-Covington fight

Gilbert Burns

Former UFC welterweight title contender Gilbert Burns shared his prediction for the upcoming match between Colby Covington And Jorge Masvidal.

“Everyone thinks that Colby will get an easy win with takedowns, but I completely disagree with that. Masvidal knows how risky this fight is. If he loses, he will be in a very difficult position, he will have three losses in a row. I know that he works hard.

I bet on an upset, on Jorge to win. I think he will finish in the later rounds. It's going to be a fucking crazy fight," Burns said in an interview with The Schmo YouTube channel.

The fight Covington - Masvidal will headline the UFC 272 show, which will be held on March 5 in Las Vegas.
