Michael Bisping recently spoke about Colby Covington and the character he puts on. The UFC welterweight has a pro-wrestling style character that he plays and he's known for crossing the line.
It has worked to an extent and he has become a big name in the UFC. Michael Bisping recently talked about Covington outside of the cage.
“Everyone that you speak to, by the way, says, ‘No, listen, Colby is a really good dude,” Bisping said on his YouTube channel (h/t MMAJunkie). “He’s just selling fights. He’s putting on a persona. And maybe that’s true. If he’s doing it, if he is acting, then give the man a fucking Oscar because he is acting his socks off each and every time.”
Michael Bisping didn't stop there as he talked about the UFC welterweight. He pointed out some of the many things Colby Covington said about Jorge Masvidal.
“This stuff, going after Masvidal’s ex-wife, calling him a bad father and stuff like that, I don’t think that’s playing a part” Bisping said. “I mean listen, any time two guys know each other, when they used to live with one another like they did, they know a lot of personal stuff about one another and then that’s when the rivalry or the hatred, for want of a better word, can get real thick.”
Colby Covington has crossed the line multiple times and things are only going to get uglier. He faces Jorge Masvidal in the main event of UFC 272 coming up in March of this year.
