Colby Covington has — once again — accused Kamaru Usman of using performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs), claiming that the ‘The Nigerian Nightmare’ used EPO in his welterweight title defense against Jorge Masvidal at UFC 261.
Usman KO’d Masvidal in the second round to retain his welterweight title, but Covington claims the defending champ was gassed after the first round and advised him to find a new chemist.
“No way I’m impressed by that. Did you guys not see how gassed he was at the end of the first round? I mean, Marty Juiceman, he’s the CEO of EPO,” Covington told Submission Radio in a recent interview (h/t Jesse Holland of MMA Mania).
