Over the years, UFC welterweight star Colby Covington has earned the name as the villain of the MMA industry. ‘Chaos’ is infamous for having a feud not only with fellow welterweight fighters. But also with the fighters from other divisions in the promotion.

The Californian is always in the headlines for taking a jibe at the fellow UFC fighters. However, ‘Chaos’ previously angered many fans on the internet. To deal with his haters, the former UFC welterweight challenger used to upload spoilers for big franchise movies on his official Twitter account.

‘Chaos’ received huge backlash for ruining movie fans’ experience by revealing the plot of their much-awaited movie. However, he billed it as his way of dealing with the ‘nerds’ and people who have an opinion of him.

In an interview with Luke Thomas in 2018, ‘Chaos’ said, “Yeah, I mean, it’s not too hard to find, you know. The spoilers come out a little bit in advance. I think they were on Reddit this time. So, you know, I just go look for the spoilers and just ruin all these nerds’ and virgins’ lives.”

“Because all my haters are virgins and they think they have an opinion about everything. And they wanna tell me how to do my job and they want to make fun of me,” he added.

“So if they want to come out here and they wanna have their little stupid opinion. Then, you know, I am gonna go ruin their movies. You know, no one’s safe. That’s the tour of the nerd bash.” Covington concluded.
