Colby Covington, a ranked UFC welterweight, responded to Shavkat Rakhmonov's claims.
"I was just shown a message from this damn dumb rat," Covington said in a video posted on social media. "Listen to this, kid, and have it translated into any available dialect your dumb head can understand. I'm not posing or bluffing. As soon as I leave this fine golf course at the Trump residence, I'm going to call Hunter Campbell and Dana White and we'll see who's doing the posing for clicks, underdog!"
