Colby Covington has sent death threats to Jon Anik over his comments on the beef between himself and Belal Muhammad.

Colby Covington has come out publicly and called out Belal Muhammad for his comments on 'Chaos' being the backup fighter for UFC 286. Many fans questioned the decision since Covington has been inactive for over a year. Muhammad claimed in a tweet that the only reason he got the position was because he was white in a since-deleted tweet.

UFC commentator Jon Anik came to his defense saying:

In response to this tweet, Covington issued a grave threat to the UFC commentator reminding him that they live in the same state:

"So you wanted to lick my fricking b***s in London, Oh Colby, then you want to go back behind the stage and cheerlead for a racist. So he associates with racism in Belal Muhammad. And Jon Anik, I don't want your kids to grow up without a dad. Just realize you live in Boca, I live in Miami m*********er, you're not too far from me so you better shut your f***ing mouth, you poked the bear, now you get the best it comes after you."

MMA fans were not very happy with Covington's message since Jon Anik is a fan favorite. 'Chaos' was not very happy with Muhammad's comments and even called him a racist.

Colby Covington says Leon Edwards has no choice but to fight him

In his post-fight press conference after defending his belt against Kamaru Usman, Leon Edwards stated that he would only fight Colby Covington if he 'begged' for it. In response to the comments made by 'Rocky', 'Chaos' reminded the welterweight champion that he cannot call the shots since he is not Conor McGregor and that he would have to accept the fight:

"He get's stripped, he's not the draw in this division Mike, I'm the draw. Look at the numbers from over the weekend, I didn't even fight and my numbers towered over the main event. Those f****ng nobody's you know... No one wants to see those guys, they're stupid....There's no personality, no Karisma...For Leon to sit there and act like he's Conor McGregor, you're not Conor McGregor bro you don't get to call the shots."

Colby Covington very confidently stated that Leon Edwards would get stripped off his title if he did not accept the fight against 'Chaos'. Edwards believes Covington does not deserve the next title shot because he has been inactive.
