The potential match-up between Colby Covington and Ian Machado Garry seems unlikely as Covington denies Garry’s statements about the UFC offering them the fight. Covington states that he has not been approached by the UFC regarding a bout with Garry and accuses Garry of spreading false information to gain attention.
Covington has outlined specific conditions for the fight, including Garry and his wife enabling comments on their Instagram profiles and Garry’s wife creating a video requesting the fight. However, it seems improbable that Garry will meet these requirements.
Covington is focused on securing a rematch with Leon Edwards to establish himself as the premier welterweight in the world. He believes that facing Garry does not add value to his career and is not a top priority. Despite Garry’s efforts to generate buzz for the potential fight, Covington remains resolute in his position.
In conclusion, the clash between Covington and Garry seems distant with Covington’s emphasis on facing Edwards for a rematch.
