It appears that the UFC’s plans for this year’s International Fight Week have been spoiled—and not by the promotion. During a casual broadcast with prominent streamer N3on, former welterweight title challenger Colby Covington may have let the cat out of the bag about what could be one of the most stacked cards of 2025. While discussing the UFC’s summer calendar, Covington stated that the next major pay-per-view is scheduled for late June in Las Vegas, lining up with the annual International Fight Week celebration.

When pressed on who might headline the card, Covington dropped a bomb: the UFC is reportedly booking Islam Makhachev vs. Ilia Topuria as the main event. He said, “They haven’t announced it, but I think it’s going to be Makhachev and Topuria.” Both are titans of the fight game—Makhachev at lightweight and Topuria at featherweight have ruled over everyone they faced. So, as expected, fans are excited about the idea of a superfight between two phenoms. Covington described it as “a sick fight,” and even his livestream partner N3on couldn’t contain his excitement, calling the matchup “crazy” and “f—— insane.”

But the surprises did not end there. ‘Chaos’ then revealed details about the co-main event, claiming that middleweight champion Dricus du Plessis will defend his title against the unbeaten Khamzat Chimaev. ‘Chaos’ revealed, “And they’re talking about maybe putting the co-main… Who’s the co-main? I think the 85 title fight between Dricus Du Plessis versus Khamzat Chimaev.”

The South African champion recently reinforced his position in the division by defeating Sean Strickland in a brutal rematch. Meanwhile, Chimaev has been waiting for a title shot as he remains one of the most feared and talked-about fighters in the UFC. If Covington’s leak is real, fans should expect a high-stakes, all-action fight.

While none of this has been publicly confirmed by the UFC, Colby Covington’s words lend credibility to the allegation. International Fight Week is renowned for putting on spectacular shows, and this prospective lineup, it could be one of the biggest in years. It’s unclear whether ‘Chaos’ has insider knowledge or is just stirring the pot, but if he’s right, UFC fans are in for an amazing summer.

However, it is worth noting that this wasn’t the only massive leak by the American fighter during the stream. Apart from the fight game, ‘Chaos’ also leaked a DM by a famous female celebrity who confessed that she is a fan of the UFC fighter. So, who is this mystery celebrity?

As if leaking the UFC’s potential International Fight Week lineup wasn’t enough, Colby Covington upped the ante during the same livesteam with N3on. In classic ‘Chaos’ mode, he didn’t simply stir the MMA pot; he nonchalantly opened his DMs to expose a surprise name that no one expected: Megan Fox. Yes, that Megan Fox. The Hollywood celebrity, best known for her performances in the Transformers series, seemed to have reached out to Covington with surprising admiration. “She’s in my DMs,” ‘Chaos’ replied with a grin that spoke volumes.

But it was neither an insult or a sarcastic remark. Instead, the message was weirdly heartfelt. Colby Covington read the DM aloud after N3on’s request, revealing a message that praised his UFC image. Fox said that he reminded her of Chael Sonnen, and she appreciated how difficult it must be to keep “in character” when someone’s natural temperament is softer. “You deserve to be a superstar,” she said.

Despite the abuse he receives for his over-the-top promos, crazy comments, and political leanings, ‘Chaos’ found validation from an unexpected source: Hollywood royalty. It was a bizarre moment that crossed the border between fight culture and pop culture, demonstrating once more that Covington lives rent-free in more minds than you’d think.

However, the timing of the buzz is quite curious. Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly have had an on-and-off romance for years, with their ups and downs playing out in the public eye. Around the same time she sent her DM to Colby, reports circulated that she and MGK had split up—again. So, while fans are going crazy about Colby’s message leak, it’s hard not to question if it was just friendly appreciation or something more layered. Whatever the reality of the DM, Covington handled it in the only way he knows how: by throwing it into the public like a grenade and letting the drama play out. It’s classic ‘Chaos.’

Whether he’s leaking UFC plans or revealing talks with A-list celebrities, he remains at the heart of controversy. Few fighters are better at capturing the spotlight—even when they’re not winning fights. But what do you think? Do you believe there could be some other motive behind the DM?
