Colby Covington has officially initiated a civil lawsuit against fellow UFC fighter Jorge Masvidal. The legal action, filed in court, seeks compensation related to a widely reported physical altercation between the two rivals that took place in 2022. Covington's legal complaint specifically references a 'loss of enjoyment,' a legal term used to describe significant distress, suffering, or a diminished quality of life resulting from an incident.

This lawsuit further escalates the well-documented animosity and "bad blood" that has long characterized the relationship between the former friends and training partners, moving their personal feud into the legal arena.
