Colby Covington Attempts To Troll Jon Jones, Anthony Smith Reacts

Colby Covington attempts to troll UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones until an interesting name came in and shut it down. Jones is slated to make his next title defense against Anthony Smith in the headliner of the UFC 235 pay-per-view event.

The former UFC interim welterweight champion is known to speak his mind and mock those who he selects. It all started once the UFC tweeted out about how UFC 235 was over two weeks away. This led to Covington responding to the Twitter post with the following:

“Hey @JonnyBones. Nobody’s looking. Go snort a few picograms.”

Hey @JonnyBones. Nobody’s looking. Go snort a few picograms.

This led to Smith shutting him down with this response:

“It’s played out, Colby. It’s not funny anymore. Stop throwing shade at my fight. Also, I heard you have a issue with me getting a title fight… next time I see you, we should talk about that. Or you gonna tuck your tail and hide in the corner of the gym like you did in Chicago?”
