Jon Jones was roommates with Colby Covington for a little bit back when they were in college. The two UFC fighters don't get along today and Jorge Masvidal actually knows one of the reasons why.

Jorge Masvidal revealed recently that Jon Jones actually warned him about Colby Covington. He claims the UFC welterweight used to steal from him.

“Jon Jones warned me numerous times,” the Cuban UFC welterweight told ESPN. “Me and Jon Jones weren’t even cool like that. We hadn’t spoken too much. But he sent a couple messages to me via our manager at the time. Like, ‘Man, watch this guy. He stole my clothes. My clothes don’t even fit him. He robbed me of money before we left the room. I never talked to him again.’”

Jorge Masvidal believes things would be very different if Colby Covington and Jon Jones met face to face. The UFC fighters would not be talking face to face apparently.

“Do you know what would happen if he was to run into Jon Jones? He would sprint out of the room. He would run so fast. But if he’s on Twitter on his computer, man, he’s poppin’ off. What would happen if they crossed at Whole Foods or somethin’? (Covington) would jet out of there. I can’t respect that. If you say something, commit to it. Do it. Whether it was on Twitter or it was in your face. Do it. And he’s such a coward, man. I can’t wait to put an end to this charlatan.”
