Covington doesn't believe in Makhachev's move to welterweight

"If Islam moves up to welterweight, there's no tougher fight for him than against me. USA vs. Russia, that would be a blockbuster. But I think that Islam is cool only in words, like Khabib", - said Covington in an interview with Submission Radio.

Recall that Covington last fought in December last year, losing by unanimous decision of judges to Leon Edwards.
