Despite his poor performance, Covington has more potential than I expected he would Despite being a douchey-as-fuck douche, odds are if Covington gets some work, he could be a problem for this division.
Also, Alvarez is a 10 out of 10 jackass for picking a fight with a rookie fighter. His team, a staff member no less, should know better. Next up - Alvarez vs. Anderson Silva. Or maybe Cro Cop.
