Morning Report: Jorge Masvidal slams ‘lying piece of s***’ Colby Covington for blaming UFC 296 loss on Donald Trump support

Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington still share one thing in common despite no longer being the best of friends.

From former brothers at American Top Team (ATT) to the most bitter of rivals, there appears to be no way to rekindle the connection between former two-time and three-time UFC welterweight title challengers Masvidal and Covington. The duo’s fallout occurred during their rise to contention in the late 2010s and things only went from bad to worse when they fought in March 2022.

Covington got the last laugh inside the octagon at UFC 272 when he earned a drawn-out five-round unanimous decision over “Gamebred.” Later that month, however, Masvidal assaulted “Chaos” outside a Miami, Fla. steakhouse, which resulted in a broken tooth on Covington along with a lawsuit. The legal battle has since been resolved between the two and the only thing they now share is a love for former U.S. President Donald Trump.

A noted MMA fan who was once affiliated with the short-lived Affliction promotion, Trump was at Covington’s recent title contest against current champion Leon Edwards in December. Unfortunately for Covington, he lost a unanimous decision that he believed he should have won and claimed afterward that the judges went against him due to his support of the ex-president. A laughable excuse, says Masvidal.

“For starters, I never met such a f****** hoe in my life, such a b****, you know?” Masvidal told BroBible. “He doesn’t know anything about politics. He literally just attaches his name to Trump, hoping that Trump will one day tweet his name or maybe show up to a fight and things like that, but the guy literally knows nothing about politics, knows nothing about immigration laws, knows nothing about 401(k)s, about foreign policies, domestic policies. He knows nothing. All this guy f****** does is throw his money away, f****** gambling on poker, and pay for prostitutes to be in his f****** video.

“So for him to go out there and involve Trump’s name so much and then say, ‘The judges don’t like me because I roll with Trump, and they robbed me because of Trump,’ you’re a f****** piece of s***. Now you’re blaming the f****** greatest president this country has ever seen. You’re blaming your f****** s***** ass loss [on him]. You didn’t do a damn thing and everybody says — even your mom f****** says — you’re a f****** bum. You’re going to blame that on Trump because you’re such a f****** bum. You’re a piece of s***. It just shows who he is, and of course, now he has a broken foot. Guy’s a f****** cheating, lying piece of s***, cop-calling motherf******, and I can’t wait to see his ass.”

Masvidal fought once more after he clashed with Covington. Another unanimous decision came as his last when Masvidal fought Gilbert Burns at UFC 287 last April and retired.

The Gamebred Bareknuckle MMA promoter has teased a possibility of fighting again in boxing, but whether that does or doesn’t happen, he and Covington should probably never be in the same vicinity again.
