"I swear to God bro, retire" - Adin Ross fumes at UFC 296 star after losing a massive $700,000 bet
Adin Ross was infuriated after watching Colby Covington's performance against Leon Edwards and urged the UFC fighter to retire.
UFC 296 was the last PPV event of the year and Covington returned to action after almost two years out to fight Edwards for the title. Fans had great expectations for Covington, but he was underwhelming in the fight.
Streamer Adin Ross was watching the fight live and had bet $700,000 on 'Chaos' to beat Edwards and had this to say when he saw his performance:
"I'll fight you next Covington, I promise you. We could spar, I promise you bro. The whole time, I'm just gonna kick your leg....Yo bro Colby, I swear to God bro, retire, I'm not even trolling bro, retire. M*********er Colby is terrible, talked hella s**t about LeBron [James], about all these people bro."

One of Adin Ross's main sponsors is the betting company Stake, which also sponsors other big names such as Drake. The streamer often bets on UFC fights and other sports, and films his live reactions to it for the millions of followers he has online.
Ross went on to call Colby Covington a 'scamming a**' and was very visibly furstrated at losing a $700k bet.
