Darren Till Predicts Colby Covington Will Destroy LeBron James Inside the Octagon

UFC Middleweight Darren Till took to social media and shared his views on the recent controversy surrounding Colby Covington. The Oregon native drew major criticism for comments he made post-fight, following his dominant win over former champion Tyron Woodley. Chiefly, the backlash came in from across multiple different sports and wasn’t limited to just MMA.

‘Chaos’ also went after NBA icon LeBron James in his post-fight interview and fired heavy artillery at the Los Angeles Lakers player. James didn’t take to kindly to Covington’s comments and fans got behind the idea of a possible fight.

Darren Till would love to see an NBA-MMA crossover

‘The Gorilla’ is arguably one of the biggest social media trolls and he uses his platform to go after fighters. What’s more, Till had plenty to say about the manner in which a fight between LeBron and Colby Covington would play out. It is safe to say that the British striker isn’t ready to give James much of a chance in the fight.

The MMA community has been locked in an ongoing debate about how a fight between the two would play out. Although LeBron James has certain physical attributes that tower over Covington, fans believe that the lifelong fighter would win the day.

People have also turned to Colby’s experience as a division one All-American Wrestler from Oregon State. Fans are sure that his accolades on the wrestling mat will supersede his physical disadvantages.

‘Chaos’, one of the best welterweights on the planet, has only lost to the undisputed champion as of late. Furthermore, he has exerted utter dominance on former champions such as Robbie Lawler and Tyron Woodley. In fact, he clocked in a record 541 strikes in an absolute beat down of ‘Ruthless’ Robbie Lawler.

His relentless pace has proven to be far too much for some of the best fighters on the planet. Darren Till, along with several other fighters and MMA pundits, shares the view that LeBron James wouldn’t stand a chance against Covington. The fight will never see the light of day, but it will remain a debated topic in the community.
