Colby Covington has sent a message to Ian Machado Garry that he will fight him if three stipulations are met by his wife, Layla.

Covington has made a name for himself with his trash talking, often receiving widespread criticism for his words and insults towards fellow fighters, including Garry.

Garry has challenged Covington to a match after the latter referenced the Irishman’s wife, saying he wants the 36-year-old to retire from the UFC as he called out his rival after beating Geoff Neal at UFC 298.

It has been unclear whether the fight would happen, but it appeared to take a step in a positive direction this week when Garry called out Covington for a future welterweight bout.

Covington, in a video shared on his social media accounts, has now responded, targeting Garry’s wife, Layla, once again.

WARNING: Strong language

Ian Muchado Garry has previously defended the ‘obsessive’ hate aimed at his wife Layla in recent months

Covington told his rival Layla must turn on her Instagram comments, sell the fight and appear on one of his MyBookie adverts

‘Greetings nerds and virgins,’ he began, stood on a boat. ‘It’s America’s champ, the people’s champ, Donald Trump’s favourtite fighter. We’re in beautiful sunny south Florida.

‘Most people, they work 60 years just to get a taste of the good life. This is what I live every day. We just shot 18 holes at Trump International West palm beach, now we’re out here sailing on seven figures and salty nerd tears.’

He continued: ‘Ian Garry, you translucent cuck, you wanted my attention, now you got it. Everybody knows why you want to fight me, Ian. I’m the biggest star in the division. It’s big city, bright lights, and the most attention and eyes you are ever going to have on you when I fight.

‘But everybody knows, Ian, you missed your chance. You had you chance in December to step on the same stage as me and have a microphone and say whatever you want to say to me, but you were scared. You were scared of what I was going to say to you, and you got the sniffles. And you cried you way out.’

After slamming Garry, Covington went onto reveal his stipulations, which included Layla appearing on one of his MyBookie adverts and declaring her support for ‘America’s Pick of the Week’.

‘You know what, I’m a giving man,’ he said. ‘I like to give everyone a chance. Everybody knows, Ian, what’s in it for you, but what’s in it for me? Tell me, why do I got to go down in the rankings to fight some Casper the ghost-looking Irish kid who has a gold digging wife?

‘Let me teach you the art of the deal, Ian, let’s come to a compromise. If you can meet these three stipulations, we got a fight. Stipulation number one, you and that gold digging w**** have got to turn your Instagram comments back on, and if you turn them off before the fight, you forfeit the fight. If you turn them off during fight week or after I beat your a**, you forfeit your purse.

‘Stipulation number two. Ian, we’ve heard you cry and beg on your knees, but we all know you’re not the boss and you don’t wear the pants in the relationship. Layla, you got 60 seconds to convince me and and the people why this fight needs to happen. So put your husband in the corner, get on your hands and knees, and beg.

‘Now for stipulation number three, my personal favourite. As you all might have noticed, something has been missing from my MyBookie promos lately, that’s because I’ve been saving that spot for a special someone. Layla, you want to be a star, you want the spotlight? I got it for you sweetie.

‘You want your 15 seconds of fame Layla? I’ll give you your 15 seconds of fame right here for America’s pick of the week. After I beat your husband, because that’s a foregone conclusion, he’s going to sit in the corner just as he does with sall that cuck stuff you guys do, and he’s going to watch while you get your 15 seconds of fame.

‘Ball’s in your court now cuck boy. I’ll have my lawyers raft up the papers, you got 24 hours to respond, we’ll see if you’re about that life.’

Covington told Layla he would give her ‘her 15 seconds of fame’ which would see him agree to fight Garry

Layla released a book titled ‘How to be a WAG’ in 2010, which has recently resurfaced and been widely criticised

Layla Muchado Garry has been widely criticised over the last few months, for reasons ranging from the 14-year age gap between the two to a book released in 2010.

Garry married Layla Anna-Lee, 40, in Las Vegas in February 2022, with his partner having released a book titled ‘How to Be a WAG’ 14 years ago.

The book drew attention to the couple following their wedding, and Garry has regularly slammed the unwanted attention he and his family have received from the likes of Sean Strickland and Dillon Danis, as well as Covington.
