ATT Coach Mike Brown believes already training with Colby Covington will help Jorge Masvidal
The former WEC featherweight champion and ATT coach Mike Brown foresees ‘The Chaos’ as a tough opponent for his pupil.
However, according to him, it is easier to game plan against a fighter you have already seen. With Covington being a former ATT fighter, Brown definitely knows the strength and weaknesses of ‘The Chaos‘.
Meanwhile, the former interim champion has moved to a new gym, MMA Masters in Miami, and has looked better than ever.
Both the fighters are coming off a loss against the UFC welterweight champion, Kamaru Usman. Also, the two have not won a single fight since 2020. Still, the bout is much expected amongst the fans because of the storylines involved.
