The former UFC welterweight title champion faces Jorge Masvidal in Saturday’s UFC 272 title bout. The event took place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Covington (16-3 MMA, 11-3 UFC) and Masvidal (35-15 MMA, 12-8 UFC) were former friends and teammates, but after a disagreement over allegations of incomplete pay from Covington’s section to Masvidal’s coach, two they became bitter enemies. Their rivalry has become one of the biggest rivals in today’s fighting game.
The big battle leading the pay-per-view event with UFC views often means a major payday, but Covington has indicated he will not receive a portion of the reduction in sales for each payout.
“I have stopped watching paid,” Covington told reporters on news Wednesday. “I do not care what people pay for this war. This is a personal fight. I want to come and show the UFC and show that I deserve to be a UFC fighter for life. ”
The vast majority of UFC pay per view are associated with heroic battles. Very few wars in the past have been the subject of a paid event without a title line.
