“All the shit he said before that fight, I'll talk to him about it when I beat him up in that octagon,” Garry said Monday on “The MMA Hour.” “If Trump is there, I will drag Colby in front of Trump and rip his mouth off and say, 'This is what you created. This is MAGA.'”
Garry vowed to “silence” Covington and “beat him so hard he will never speak again.” He predicted that Covington would return to Miami and “rethink his life choices.”
No fight has been officially scheduled.
