Potential opponents are queuing up to face Colby Covington. One of those possible foes doesn’t think the former two-time UFC welterweight title challenger is eager to face him or the combatant favored by UFC president Dana White.
Belal Muhammad extended his UFC unbeaten streak to eight straight fights on April 16 with a decision win over Vicente Luque. Muhammad had mentioned Covington’s name for a future matchup both before and after his win over Luque. However, Muhammad, who moved to No. 5 in the official UFC welterweight rankings with his win over Luque, doesn’t think Covington will accept his challenge.
