“Let’s start off by having a moment of silence for Woodley’s career,” Covington said, pouring his drink on the ground. “That’s Woodley’s career going down the drain. Just like I told you guys, he’s washed up, he don’t want to fight no more. He’s TMZ Woodley. He’s out there rapping, making songs about me, hurting people’s ear drums. You know who called it? I said he was washed up, I said he was a 40-year-old virgin. He doesn’t want to fight anymore. All he did was show up for a pay check. So, I figure we have a moment of silence for him, and I pour out a beer for his career, because cause just like his career, it went right down the drain.”
Covington is coming off of a TKO loss to welterweight champion Kamaru Usman at UFC 245, and currently doesn’t have a fight booked. Woodley’s path is uncertain at the moment. This loss has certainly put him at a crossroads in regards to his career. It remains to be seen how he proceeds from here.
