Tsarukyan named the favorite in the confrontation between Edwards and Covington

Top UFC lightweight Arman Tsarukyan named the favorite in the upcoming fight between the organization's middleweight champion Leon Edwards and Colby Covington.

“In the fight between Edwards and Covington, I consider Colby a slight favorite, since he has a slightly better fight. I don’t know what form he’s in at the moment, he hasn’t fought in a long time, but Leon Edwards is at his peak, he beat Kamaru Usman twice, who also fights very well. So this is a very interesting fight, but with a small margin I would still choose Covington,” Tsarukyan said.

Let us remind you that the Edwards-Covington fight will take place on December 16 as part of UFC 296.
