Colby Covington having beef with anyone in the UFC is not news. He has managed to turn friendships with fighters like Jorge Masvidal and Jon Jones, into ugly situations that get personal.

The controversial UFC welterweight recently went off on both men and didn't hesitate to hurl accusations at them. It appears he thinks Jon Jones and Jorge Masvidal do many illegal things outside of the cage.

“I mean, there’s a common thing with those two guys,” the UFC welterweight told Yahoo! Sports. “You’re talking about two scumbags, two criminals. So, you know, who’d want to get along with those guys. Those guys are dirtbags, man. They cheat on their wives. They beat their wives. They cheat on their taxes,” Covington said. “They don’t do anything by the law. So, you know, I’m a big believer of law and order. So, of course, I don’t agree with those guys. They’re scumbags.”
