But apart from this fight ‘Chaos’ wants to enter inside the Octagon with his former so-called brother and training partner Gamebred Masvidal. In one of his latest interview with Submission Radio Covington says,

“Yeah, I’ve wanted the fight since day one. Everybody knows that. Dana White knows that, He had a lot to say before, guys. He was saying in the gym that he’d fight me on sight. He wanted to go out into the public parking lot. He was telling Dana White at a show in LA, when DC was fighting Stipe, that he was ready to fight backstage and wanted to fight me there and then”

“Where’s he at now guys? Now he’s nowhere to be found. Now he’s going to get paid seven figures, he’s going to get paid all this money to go fight in the octagon and now he’s going to have someone to pay his hospital bills after I’m done with him. So, where is this guy?”

Even getting called out multiple times by Covington, Masvidal hasn’t responded yet and ‘Chaos’ says that’s because he is scared. He further added, “They said it was going to be a tough task because he doesn’t want to fight me, They pretty much told me that he plain and simple told them he doesn’t like the style match up.”

“You’re in the UFC fighting the best fighters in the world. You claim to want to be the best in the world and you don’t like the style match up. What is this? The real divas of Atlanta? What are we doing? I thought we were in the Ultimate Fighting Championship, not the Ultimate Feelings Championship.”
