10 Loudest Crowd Reactions In UFC History
10. Colby Covington Adjusts His Angle (UFC On ESPN)
When you proclaim to be the so called 'super villain' of the UFC, you need the sort of entrance that will compliment that statement.
Colby Covington is no stranger to controversy and never shies away from speaking his mind, passionately supporting Donald Trump, with his Make America Great Again cap being a staple of his everyday attire. He even visited the White House with his interim Welterweight title last year.
Even after being stripped of his belt for inactivity, ever the heel, Covington still carries around the championship and berates us all about how he is still the true champ.
Coming into UFC on ESPN in August 2019, Covington was well aware of how he'd be received by the fans in the building and leaned into this by requesting a song, from the Olympic hero Kurt Angle to accompany him to the ring.
The 'You Suck' Angle theme music had long been used in the WWE as a way of generating heel heat for a villainous Angle, before becoming an endearing homage in his later years.
The former was experienced here.
An entire arena bellowed out how much they thought Covington 'sucked' and it was a sight to behold.
Fair play to the man for understanding what the audience wanted and what his role to play in proceedings was. He went on to beat Robbie Lawler by unanimous decision so this can only be considered a win-win for Covington.
