The term ‘polarising’ hardly does justice when describing Colby Covington. The #3 ranked UFC welterweight started his career as a wrestler at his school in Springfield, Oregon. His MMA career took off in 2011 when Dam Lambert was looking for wrestlers to help his gym (American Top Team). After training with ATT and competing at multiple local promotions, Covington was signed by UFC in 2014.
Covington was 5-0 coming into the promotion and won his first two fights before losing to Warlley Alves in 2015. He then went on an impressive 7 fights winning streak, beating the likes of dos Anjos, Maia, Lawler, etc. His second loss of his career came in 2019 at the hands of welterweight champion Kamaru Usman.
After getting the win over former champion Tyron Woodley in 2020, Covington rematched Kamaru Usman for the UFC Welterweight Championship on November 6, 2021, at UFC 268, but lost via unanimous decision in a closely contested match. On March 5, 2022, at UFC 272, Covington faced Jorge Masvidal and secured a unanimous decision victory, earning the Fight of the Night award. He faced Leon 'Rocky' Edwards for the welterweight title at UFC 296 on December 16, 2023 and lost via unanimous decision.
