Dana White says Covington has signed fight contract: ‘We’re just waiting on Woodley’

Colby Covington was telling the truth.

Earlier this week ‘Chaos’ posted a picture of his signature for a fight agreement with Tyron Woodley for a welterweight matchup on Aug. 22.

The controversial UFC welterweight has accused Woodley of backing out, however, and, according to UFC president Dana White, Covington wasn’t exactly lying.

Speaking at a media scrum in Abu Dhabi on Friday (h/t Alexander K. Lee of MMA Fighting), White said the UFC is working on booking a matchup between Woodley and Covington and that they are waiting on ‘T-Wood’ to sign the contract.
