This fight could have the potential of taking place in UFC 253 as the co-main event in the Paula Costa vs Israel Adesanya bout which would help stack the UFC 253 fight card.
Tyron Woodley x Colby Covington is closer to becoming a reality than ever before. They have both verbally agreed to fight in September. Currently, it’s the main event on Sept. 19. But that’s the UFC 253 date, no? Well that might move to Abu Dhabi on 9/26. Fluid right now.
