Colby Covington says he'd knock out LeBron James. Next potential mega fight?????

[Boxing-1013]

why would basketball players be able to fight? no one without experience can fight. anyone who thinks that will find out in about 5 seconds they are out of their league when they fight a real fighter.

if you have seen his other comments he is clearly appealing to the racist right in america and if you have seen the demographics of the ufc its a smart "business move" but i would think some things are more important than business but maybe not

You're a pathetic englishman, trying to tell others about the politics and situation in another country. Post your picture bro

They should make it a 2 on 1 handicap match unless LeBron has D-Wade, Kyrie or AD by his side he can’t win.

Not sure he'd knock Lebron out. Wouldn't be surprised if he submitted him though.

Who the heck is Colby Covington?

The American sports scene is becoming that lawless land where anything goes. Athletes trying to get paid during these crazy times and would just say anything

What a Trumptard piece of **** this clown is. The only NBA player Colby could ever beat is the corpse of Kobe.

Who cares? Lebron is a world champion in his sport. Usman broke Covington's face in MMA. He should deal with that before talking shi *t about what he would do to basketball players.

Give LeBron about 1-2 months of training, and he would absolutely crush Colby. There are levels to athleticism, and LeBron is perhaps the greatest athlete we've ever seen.

Keep in mind that LeBron is a foot taller, will have a huge reach advantage and also a huge weight advantage to go along with just being a clearly superior athlete.

Nate Robinson was a washed up, 5'8 retired player, going up against a 6'1 Cruiserweight who clearly outweighed him.

Colby's boxing is terrible as well.

Colby actually has really good technique in boxing. He looks smooth in there. Not a tremendous amount of power though; that's where Usman got him.

Lebron would have a better chance than Nate Robinson vs Colby obviously, based on Lebron having 100 pounds on him and Colby a 170 pound fighter, but not every athlete is a fighter.

It's honestly hard for me to imagine some of these guys in a real fight - some of these guys that flop so theatrically for example. I don't think a mentality like that carries over too well to fighting.

But Lebron courts comments and offers like this - when you are as outspoken as he is about political things, it will rub people of the opposite persuasion the wrong way.

Also when you are a mega star, you will get called out for the attention alone. If you are mad at Colby for calling out Lebron, you'd have to be mad at Floyd for doing what he did, etc etc.
