Colby Covington Pleading For A UFC Fight

Welterweight fighter Colby Coving has a record of 6-1-0 in the UFC (11-1-0 overall) and he last competed at UFC On Fox 22 this past December.

After defeating Bryan Barberena at the event, the seven-fight UFC veteran has been having trouble getting another fight in the promotion.

The fighter recently posted a picture of himself on Instagram pleading for a fight:

 

Drastic times call for drastic measures @ufc . How am I suppose to eat if everyone is ducking me!??? @danawhite #ufc #hungry #letmework #equality #real #fighter @seanshelby

One fighter that Covington has been trying to fight is former UFC Lightweight Champion Rafael Dos Anjos, who was recently booked.

Covington also took to Twitter in an attempt to get Dos Anjos to fight him:

Looks like the little diva @RdosAnjosMMA left his email open in an Apple Store. pic.twitter.com/I0r2e1fNZp

When his focus is not on the former lightweight champion, the welterweight contender is also challenged the top 15 of the welterweight division on Twitter:

Just want to take this time to say F U to all the ranked @ufc welterweights dodging me and robbing me of a brighter future!

It has been four months since his last fight, it will apparently be much longer until he’s in the Octagon again.
