Colby’s Prank Sparks Controversy
As UFC 315 approaches, Colby Covington has once again stirred the pot—this time with a prank aimed at Belal Muhammad. At the UFC Performance Institute, Covington recorded himself hiding Belal’s food and mocking him, calling him a “bum” and “dumber than a box of rocks,” while laughing with his team.
Belal Fires Back: “I’m Not Even in Vegas!”
When asked about the stunt, Muhammad didn’t hold back. “He hid my food at… I’m not even in Vegas. That’s how much of a moron he is,” Belal said. He also roasted Covington and Kamaru Usman, saying, “These guys are like YouTubers now. Kamaru’s a podcaster, Colby’s a YouTuber. They need to do a podcast together: The Biggest Losers.”
Mind Games or Just Immature?
While some fans see Covington’s behavior as typical pre-fight antics, others believe he crossed the line. Hiding an opponent’s food, especially during weight management and training, could be seen as more than just a joke—it could affect performance.
