‘Keep Layla’s Name Out Your Mouth’

Up-and-coming Irish celebrity Ian Garry has a problem for Colby Covington, and it’s a bit uncommon for the game of MMA, to say the least.

Using a 14-0 streak, the undefeated Garry has now cast his approach into the midst of the welterweight elite. His final outing noticed him squeeze out a split-decision victory over the always-tough Geoff Neal, and now Garry’s sights are set even additional up the totem pole and locked onto a possible struggle with Covington.

Covington is not any stranger to throwing pictures, and ‘The Future’ has been a simple goal for him. Most just lately, ‘Chaos’ launched a video by which he referred to as Garry’s spouse a “Gold-digging wh*re” and claimed since she wore the pants within the relationship, she may get down on her knees and beg Covington to simply accept the struggle with Ian Garry.

Garry would inevitably launch a comeback and add his personal stipulations to the combo, together with his want for the struggle to be an ‘I give up’ match by which the loser retires from MMA.

Ian Garry responds to Colby Covington’s Callout video

“Hear right here, Colby ‘Chaos’ Covington,” Ian Garry started, in his own response video. “You might be in no place to inform me what I ought to be doing in life. You’ll do what you’re informed.” The video then cuts to a montage of Covington’s title fights, showcasing all of the instances the referee has raised the opposite fighter’s hand, rubbing it in that ‘Chaos’ has by no means been victorious in a UFC title struggle.

“…You’re not America’s favourite fighter,” Garry continued. What you might be is a peak underperformer. You’re the solely individual in UFC historical past to lose three world title fights. And also you haven’t bought a single win towards anyone within the (welterweight) prime 15 proper now. So Colby, why ought to I struggle you?”

I can consider one cause: I problem you to an ‘I give up’ match. One among us has to say: ‘I give up’, and whoever says the phrases ‘I give up’ has to retire. Gloves off, middle of the octagon, sayonara, my good friend. I’m going to be the ultimate chapter in your legacy of failure. I’m going to rid the UFC of Colby Covington for good, and I’m going to make MMA nice once more.”
