LAS VEGAS -- The stakes were raised between Leon Edwards and Colby Covington at the prefight news conference Thursday.
Covington brought up Edwards' father, who was murdered when Edwards was a teenager. Covington said he would bring Edwards to the "seventh lair of hell" and maybe Edwards would meet his father there. Edwards responded by throwing a full bottle of water at Covington. The two men had to be separated.
Edwards will defend his UFC welterweight title against Covington at UFC 296 Saturday night at T-Mobile Arena.
