Video – Colby Covington Chokes Out Rap Star Lil Pump

Former UFC welterweight title challenger Colby Covington will stop at nothing to improve his skills, even at the expense of his friends.

Covington hasn’t fought in the UFC Octagon since a unanimous decision defeat to Leon Edwards at UFC 296 last year. As of this writing, he hasn’t competed in 2024, and nothing is formally in the works for his return.

Covington remains active in the gym despite his long hiatus from competition. An injury he suffered against Edwards hampered his return timeline to the Octagon.
