Dustin Poirier Reacts After Colby Covington Insults His Wife & Kids at UFC 272 Call-Out

UFC 272 was nothing less than an incredible experience for fight fans. The prelims were incredible and the main card had fans on the edge of their seats right until the end of the Colby Covington vs. Jorge Masvidal grudge match.

Going from best friends to bitter rivals, these two fighters gave it their all in the octagon during the fight. With heavy shots, amazing takedowns, and incredible transitions, the fight really had its moments. With that being said, there could only be one winner.

Covington took the win over Masvidal with a unanimous decision and issued a challenge to his next target.

In the post-fight interview with Joe Rogan, Colby Covington said, “Now onto business, Joe. I just took care of Miami’s street trash. Now it’s time to take care of Louisiana’s swamp trash! Where you at Dustin Poirier, you c***. You said it’s on sight. Name the site, Dustin. Bring that jezebel of a wife and bring that little kid and I’ll see you soon. You’re next!”

Hence, it is clear that ‘Chaos’ wants Dustin Poirier next. If this goes down, it will be another bad grudge match as ‘The Diamond‘ is friends with ‘Gamebred’ and his own issues with Covington from their time at ATT.

As the number 2 ranked lightweight of the UFC has previously expressed his hatred and contempt for Covington, this perfectly sets up a cross-division super fight. Here, Covington may look to secure consecutive wins for the first time since 2019.

Colby Covington may be the villain, but his skills always speak otherwise. He repeatedly proves to be the second-best welterweight in the world. With a dominant performance, Covington bested Jorge in most of the moments.

Masvidal, however, as usual, does not disappoint when it comes to his striking game. With rapid elbows, powerful hooks, and devastating leg kicks, ‘Street Jesus’ released strikes against his former teammate and friend in an explosive fashion.
