10 UFC Fights You Cannot Miss In August

10. Colby Covington Vs. Robbie Lawler - UFC On ESPN 5

Love him or hate him, you've got to give it to Colby Covington: he certainly knows how to get a reaction from people. His trolling personality has made him the biggest villain in the UFC, but he keeps on getting the job done inside the Octagon.

The American Top Team product has a fantastic mixture of relentless chain wrestling, along with a seemingly never-ending gas tank. This allows him to put a pace on his opponents that most fighters can't handle.

However, it's going to be difficult for Covington to get close to his opponent, former UFC welterweight champion Robbie Lawler, as he's likely to be hit with a barrage of knockout worthy strikes. Not only is Lawler the most dangerous opponent Covington has fought, he's also got a tidy defensive wrestling game himself.

It'll be extremely interesting to see how the former teammates do against each other and how it could change the landscape at 170lb. After all, a win for Covington will guarantee him a shot at the welterweight title.
