Colby Covington controversy
UFC star Colby Covington recently sat down for an interview with Nina-Marie Daniele on her YouTube channel, Nina Drama. During the conversation, Covington expressed his dislike for Instagram, stating that he prefers another platform over it.
When asked about Instagram by Daniele, Covington didn’t hold back. He referred to Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Instagram’s parent company, as a “communist” who “hates America” and freedom of speech. Covington went on to say that Instagram is even worse than the platform he prefers.

Who is Colby Covington fighting in UFC ?
He will be competing in the main event at UFC 296 against Leon Edwards, the current UFC welterweight champion. This will be Covington’s third undisputed title fight, with his previous two attempts resulting in losses to Kamaru Usman. However, Covington previously held the interim belt after defeating Rafael dos Anjos at UFC 225.
Covington has made headlines in the lead-up to the fight by referencing Edwards’ British background and stating his desire to “repeat” the American Revolution by taking the belt from the English champion. With a win against Jorge Masvidal in March 2022, Covington is looking to secure another shot at the welterweight title.
