UFC Fight Night 119 video highlights: Colby Covington vs. Demian Maia

Colby Covington went into the octagon an enemy of the Brazilian fans, and he left an even bigger one.

Covington (13-1 MMA, 8-1 UFC) took a unanimous decision from Demian Maia (25-8 MMA, 19-8 UFC) in the UFC Fight Night 119 co-feature. Then he got on the microphone and called Brazilians “filthy animals” in a “dump” of a country. But it doesn’t change the run he’s been on. Does he deserve to be next in line for the title?

Check out the video highlights above.

The welterweight bout was the co-main event of Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 119 card at Ibirapuera Gymnasium in Sao Paulo. The main card aired on FS1 following prelims on FS2 and UFC Fight Pass.
