The former interim Welterweight champion has lost his last two bouts, a one-sided decision to then-champion Leon Edwards following by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/2024\/12\/15\/24321491\/ufc-tampa-results-joaquin-buckley-dominates-gritty-colby-covington-absolute-bloodbath-espn-mma\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">a bloody mauling<\/a> at the hands of Joaquin Buckley. \u201cChaos\u201d isn\u2019t in the title mix anymore, and he spends most of his time lately speculating about match ups that aren\u2019t going to happen, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/2025\/4\/13\/24407285\/paddy-pimblett-ambushed-backstage-colby-covington-dishes-out-second-ufc-314-ill-slap-you-video\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Lightweight Paddy Pimblett<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/2022\/5\/16\/23077736\/dustin-poirier-explains-new-willingness-to-fight-colby-covington-ufc\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">retired Dustin Poirier<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Fortunately, 37-year-old Covington has found prey he can still beat up on: social media influencers! Instagram star Chrogman has gained fame in recent months for challenging his online followers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/boxing\/386646\/fight-fans-angry-confused-after-andrew-tate-debuts-new-pound-for-pound-rankings\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">(including Andrew Tate)<\/a> to fisticuffs. He\u2019s not particularly skilled or especially tough, but Chrogman found his way to the UFC Performance Institute in Las Vegas, Nevada to throw down with \u201cChaos.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Their boxing match can be viewed in the video player above. Covington has very little trouble with the wonky punches of Chrogman, putting him down twice with body shots in a short period of time. Chrogman is down for the count the second time around, and the blurred video seems to show him puking in the cage shortly afterward.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">It ain\u2019t much \u2026 but it\u2019s honest work?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Colby Covington just picked up his first win since March 2022.
