Covington wants to fight Adesanya

“A fight with an opponent like Israel Adesanya intrigues me — he's a former champion, like me, a person who creates hype, has a fan base, a platform, and a brand. Therefore, I believe that a fight with Izzy makes the most sense, and besides, he's someone I really don't like. He has said a lot about me in the past, so let's see if he can back up his words with actions,” said the American in an interview with Submission Radio.
