Jon Jones enjoyed watching Colby Covington get beat up at UFC on ESPN 63.
Covington (17-5 MMA, 12-5 UFC) suffered a third-round doctor stoppage TKO loss to Joaquin Buckley (21-6 MMA, 11-4 UFC) in this past Saturday’s headliner at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Fla., after a laceration to his right eyelid wouldn’t stop leaking blood.
Earlier in the week, Covington went off on Jones, his former college roommate, during UFC on ESPN 63 media day. Covington questioned Jones’ sexuality, accused him of ducking Tom Aspinall, and took aim at past allegations of domestic violence.
So, it should come as no surprise to see Jones jump at the opportunity to revel in Covington’s defeat.
“Big shoutout to Colby Covington for skipping training to get President Trump ‘ready’—we all appreciate the sacrifice At least he got to see me win .”
“That’s what I find the most hilarious, listening to what he’s gonna come up with next after getting his ass whooped.”
“I know I shouldn’t but it’s just so much fun. It’s amusing watching someone you know hate you fail repeatedly.”

Covington appeared in good spirits after taking the short-notice opportunity against Buckley. He lost the first two rounds on the judges’ scorecards but was having a solid third round before the doctor intervened to stop the fight with seconds remaining.
