Colby Covington Blanks Rockhold at RAF 5, Calls Out GSP, Dismisses Bo Nickal
No bout with Georges St-Pierre is in place.
Overview
- Covington routed Luke Rockhold 12–0 by technical fall to headline Real American Freestyle 5 in Sunrise, Florida.
- In his post-fight interview, he challenged retired UFC star Georges St-Pierre to meet under the RAF banner.
- He rejected Bo Nickal’s callout, calling him a quitter after Nickal withdrew when Yoel Romero missed weight by seven pounds.
- Nickal later floated an MMA fight with Covington at a planned UFC White House event in June, which has not been confirmed.
- The result follows Covington’s recent MMA struggles, including a 2024 TKO loss to Joaquin Buckley and a 2–4 run over his past six UFC bouts.
