Ahead of their grudge match at UFC 272, Jorge Masvidal continues to spill some details about former training partner and best friend Colby Covington. In a recent tell-all interview with ESPN’s Marc Raimondi, “Gamebred” touched on several topics, one of them being Covington’s strained relationship with former UFC champion Jon Jones.
Jones and Covington – who were college roommates – have been trading shots for years. But Masvidal says “Bones” warned him about Covington while revealing some supposed incidents of theft.
“Jon Jones warned me numerous times. Me and Jon Jones weren’t even cool like that, we hadn’t spoken too much,” Masvidal said.
