During an appearance on Full Send Podcast, Covington was asked whether he was annoyed by Drake for betting against him. ‘Chaos’ replied by sounding off on both Drake and Jorge Masvidal.

Additionally, Colby Covington also jibed at the comparisons between Cuban-American MMA megastar Masvidal and Tony Montana (the iconic Cuban character from the 1983 film Scarface). Covington also referred to Masvidal as ‘Phoney Montana’ and stated:

“I mean, how do you put your money on ‘Phoney Montana?’ Come on, Drake. Like, you’re better than that. Like, how did Drake even become something? Wasn’t he like some little boyhood star in Canada or something like that, isn’t that? Like, come on. There’s nothing gangster about that, Drake. You’re soft, bro. You’re not a gangster.”

Additionally, in response to the podcast hosts asking whether Covington really doesn’t like Drake, he explained:

“I used to like [him] until he bet against me. So, now, you know, it’s war.”

When asked if he’ll slap Drake when he sees him, Covington said:

“I mean, if I see him, I can’t say what’s gonna happen, you know. I don’t know if I’ll be able to contain myself. That’s why they call me ‘Chaos.’"

Furthermore, Covington noted that Drake betting against him motivated him to perform even better. ‘Chaos’ insinuated that he loves it when people bet against him.
