Covington mocked Paul after Joshua's defeat

Alexandr Ormanji Dec. 23, 2025, 11:26 a.m.

Colby Covington, former UFC welterweight title contender, criticized Jake Paul for the fight against Anthony Joshua.

"This fight was definitely not staged - and if it was, AJ didn't get the script. People tuned in to see if Jake was foolish enough to actually go out and let a heavyweight maul him. Jake delivered a disgraceful performance. Jake didn't prove that he's really tough or a real boxer. He just proved that he's very foolish.

I can't believe people were even betting on a guy from the Disney channel against an Olympic champion and world heavyweight champion. This whole show is a complete embarrassment. I wouldn't be surprised if Jake quits pretending to be a fighter forever. Hang up the gloves, Jake..."

Let us recall, Joshua finished Paul in the sixth round.
