Fighters react to Covington's one-sided win over Masvidal
Colby Covington was victorious in his grudge match with Jorge Masvidal, dominating his former friend by unanimous decision in Saturday's UFC 272 main event.
Several current and former MMA fighters reacted to the fight and Covington's win on Twitter.
Covington's biggest asset is his gas tank. Just wears out his opponents over time. Wrestling like that can only be achieved at the highest levels. Unless you're at that level of wrestling knowledge and experience, you're not stopping his takedowns. #UFC272
