Orlovsky made a prediction for the Edwards-Covington fight

Former UFC heavyweight champion Andrey Orlovsky said that in the upcoming title fight in the welterweight division he will root for the champion Leon Edwards, but at the same time expects to see the victory of the “disgusting” Colby Covington.

“I would like Edwards, but, apparently, the nasty Covington will wear him out with his fight. Although he didn’t fight for a long time, everyone remembers that my Cuban comrade (Jorge Masvidal - approx.) caused him some harm to his health. So we'll see. I would, of course, like to see Edwards win, but I think Covington will prevail,” the Belarusian said while communicating with fans on Instagram.

Let us remind you that the fight between Edwards and Covington will headline the UFC 296 tournament, which will take place on December 16 in Las Vegas.
