Ian Machado Garry believes a fight against Colby Covington will never materialize due to Covington’s fear of facing him. The Irishman has received a mixed reception from fans since debuting in the UFC back in 2021. ‘The Future’ is now approaching his 10th fight inside the octagon, and while some believe he isn’t cut out to be a mainstay atop the welterweight division rankings, his 9-1 record says otherwise. Some of his peers aren’t sold by what they’ve seen from Ian Machado Garry thus far in his career, one of those men being division rival Colby Covington.
