Colby Covington, former college roommate and wrestling teammate of current UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Jon Jones, spoke about “Bones'” violent past during a recent podcast interview.
While talking to the folks at the MMA Roasted podcast, Covington spoke about the brawls he and Jones would get into during their college wrestling days.
Below is an excerpt, courtesy of FOXSports.com:
“We got into a lot of trouble. When you’re in a small town in Iowa, a lot of kids are farm kids and they always wanted to start some stuff with the wrestlers and I was a national champ in college and Jon was a national champ, so they’d always try to pick fights at our house parties and stuff. We would just clear out the place of a bunch of townies. Especially Jon — he’d be throwing people through windows and stuff. It was nuts. He has a bad temper, when he gets mad — he gets mad.”
