Colby Covington, prior to his fight at UFC 268, had claimed that hip-hop artist Lil Wayne would accompany him to the octagon. He had also mentioned that his walkout song would be Lil Wayne's 'The Sky is the Limit'.
However, things didn't turn out the way 'Chaos' had claimed as Lil Wayne was not there to walk him out to the octagon. Speaking to Submission Radio, Colby Covington revealed why the artist did not show up during the fight:
"You know, Lil' Wayne was supposed to make it out but he had some problems in L.A. with his private jet, I guess. It was having like some mechanical issues. So, they thought it would be dangerous to fly out that day because originally they were just gonna come Saturday, come to the fight and then head back to LA on Sunday but you know, they had some mechanical issues."

Colby Covington also added that it was a sensible decision not to fly and mentioned that he would have done the same, had he been in that situation.
