Colby Covington goes off on Bo Nickal: 'You're a quitter'
"I know you're a big fan of weight classes and refused to fight a man that was six pounds too heavy... I propose we do this in a weight class where one of us is ranked and has actual stakes. So how about bring that stupid ginger bowl cut down to 170, and I'll grant your wish to fight the biggest name in the welterweight division."
"But let's make one thing crystal clear. I'm not gonna take away an opportunity from someone who, unlike you, has done things the hard way to earn a spot on a big card like Kyle Daukaus. He's 10 times the man and fighter you ever could be. You're just a competitor, bozo, you're not a fighter. You've had everything fed to you on a silver spoon."
"Nobody likes you because you're a spoiled brat. And nobody respects you because you're a quitter. We all watched the real bozo come out on a stool against the Dutch grappler. Daukaus will bring the same quitter out of you on the White House lawn."
Colby Covington has accepted Bo Nickal's year-long callout for either a UFC fight or wrestling match. Covington challenges Nickal to drop from middleweight to welterweight, where Covington is ranked and the stakes are higher. Covington criticizes Nickal for withdrawing from a RAF 5 fight against Yoel Romero over a six-pound weight miss, highlighting Nickal's particular stance on weight classes. Covington refuses to fight Nickal at the UFC White House card, stating that Kyle Daukaus earned his spot through hard work unlike Nickal. Covington predicts Daukaus will defeat Nickal, similar to Reinier de Ridder's victory, and characterizes Nickal as a spoiled, unrespected quitter who has received preferential treatment throughout his career.
