Colby Covington can finally be ready to chase undisputed UFC Gold, because he has made great admission about his career.
After he felt a shortage in his third attempt, Colby Covington tried to return to the win column and possibly the title interview when he accepted Joaquin Buckley last December.
Unfortunately for Covington, however, he was completely slaughtered by Buckley, who then scored the profit of Doctor Stoppage after he had cut open 'chaos'.
Since then, the controversial welter weight has been out of operation and apparently has not much to return.

Covington makes shocking career access after recent run-in
With the 37-year-old from the camp and apparently waiting for his next occasion, he attended events and tries to keep his name relevant.
Last Saturday at UFC 314, Covington had a backstage with Paddy Pimblett after the impressive victory of Pimblett over Michael Chandler.
Covington tried to explain his side of the fight after Pimblett accused him of staying relevant and stealing his spotlights after a big victory.
During his spare time, Covington tried to keep his fan base in the loop by streaming live consistently.
The former interim champion has done several live streams at the UFC Performance Institute and his live stream has established an almost vote between him and his former teammate.
And with that Covington has made a shocking recognition that he would rather be the number one streamer in the world over becoming a UFC champion.
“(I would rather be) number one streamer because they are paid for a little more money, and they don't have to be hit,” Covington said during an live stream with internet personality Neon.
Will Colby Covington return to the UFC in 2025?
Although a large majority of the UFC fan base does not seem particularly interested in Covington who returns to action, he recently stated that he would like to return for the International Vechtweek at the end of June.
With that, the controversial welter weight admitted that he wants to fight against Nick or Nate Diaz in what he thinks would be a big fight.
Despite that unlikely, Nate Diaz has previously plagued a return to the promotion, and it seems rather instead of later that the Stockton Brawler will make his comeback.
