When Polyana Viana exposed Colby Covington's NSFW demand after his "bedroom cardio" comment
Polyana Viana once exposed Colby Covington for his NSFW demand after the latter's made a suggestive comment regarding Viana.
Viana and Covington used to be teammates and were good friends at one point. However, 'Chaos' claimed to be in a sexual relationship with his fellow UFC fighter in 2021, and as one would assume, his comments ruined their friendship.
During an interview with Submission Radio, Colby Covington made a rather shocking comment by suggesting he was working on his "bedroom cardio" with Polyana Viana. He said:
"I got to work on my bedroom cardio, keeping world-class championship form. I got nothing but respect for her. She’s a great girl, a beautiful girl. Most guys pay a million dollars just to hang out with Polyana. You gotta get me a million dollars to get me off the couch when I’m hanging out with Polyana Viana.”

Following her victory over Jinh Yu Frey, Viana, who is quite active on social media responded to the comments made by Colby Covington and exposed him for seemingly making an NSFW request. She said:
"Colby wanted me to finger him in the a**, but I did not want to. So he got upset."
