Colby Covington has defended the controversial comments he made about the Black Lives Matter movement after his win against Tyron Woodley earlier this month.
The outspoken Covington told media after his stoppage win over Woodley that Black Lives Matter is a “joke” and the people associated with it are “complete terrorists”. Covington’s comments were disapproved by many, including some of the sponsors affiliated with the UFC such as Reebok.
Despite his comments receiving heavy criticism, Covington told Submission Radio he didn’t say anything about Black Lives Matter that they don’t advertise on their website.
