Colby Covington Wants Ian Garry's Wife to To Make a Video With Him: "She Loves Making Videos"

Colby Covington wants to make a video with Ian Garry’s wife.

‘Chaos’ has spent much of the last year trading barbs with Garry, many of them taking shots at his marriage to TV personality Layla Machado Garry.

Covington repeatedly perpetuated rumors that their marriage was anything but conventional. That prompted Mrs. Garry to respond via a video on social media where she sought to dispell three false rumors regarding their relationship. Of course, that didn’t little to stop Covington from slamming the couple on repeat.

Ahead of his return to the Octagon on Saturday for the UFC’s final event of the year, Covington laid out three very specific stipulations if Ian Garry ever hopes to get him inside the Octagon, one of them being that his wife will have to “make a video” with him if he loses.

“Hey, if you want this fight, just answer the three stipulations,” Covington said during Wednesday’s UFC Tampa media day. “Turn on your comments—your wife wants to be so famous so bad, she’s quoting Shakespeare, which is just weird in itself. We know how much weird stuff goes on in Shakespeare about cousins, family, and all the weird things they do. But hey, you want to be famous? Make a video begging for the fight.

“And then, if you really think you’re going to beat me, agree that if you lose the fight, your wife has to be in my video for BC Game when we do an America’s Pick of the Week for the people. He couldn’t, you know, he couldn’t answer, and he couldn’t meet the stipulations.”

Covington laid out those same stipulations in a video earlier this year. Instead, Garry opted to try his luck against top-five-ranked welterweight contender Shavkat Rakhmonov at UFC 310 earlier this month.

“You know, if he meets those stipulations, maybe,” Covington continued. “All he has to do is turn his comments on—why is he so sensitive with the fans? All he has to do is have his wife make a video. She loves making videos. She’s making videos to Sean Strickland, trying to quote Shakespeare like she’s so smart and this and that. She loves to put herself in the limelight and act like she’s a part of the business.

“And then, if he’s so confident, let’s put a risk on the table. If he loses, she’s got to do a video with me for my new sponsor, BC Game. Otherwise, I don’t have time. It’s just a waste of my time. He’s a cuck. I don’t want to go with a cuck—who knows where his hands and his whole body have been, what type of fluids are on him. Like, that’s just disgusting.”

Colby Covington headlines UFC tampa a week after garry goes toe-to-toe with ‘Nomad’

Covington will headline UFC Tampa on December 14 when he meets rising welterweight contender Joaquin Buckley. A win for ‘Chaos’ would be his first since a March 2022 victory over bitter rival Jorge Masvidal at UFC 272. On the flip side, a loss would drop him to 2-4 in his last six and likely take him firmly out of contention for the welterweight title.

Either scenario could result in a meeting between Covington and Garry in 2025, but a loss against Buckley would likely result in him falling behind Garry in the top 10 rankings.

Would ‘The Future’ still want the fight at that point, or is Garry’s hate for Covington so strong that he’d be willing to fight down the rankings for a chance to pick apart the three-time title challenger?

Ian Machado Garry sets record straight on relationship with his wife, Layla Machado Garry, and her ex-husband

UFC welterweight star Ian Machado Garry cleared the air on some of the rumors surrounding his relationship with his wife — Layla Machado Garry — and why he chose to take her name as opposed to the more traditional approach.

Garry’s marriage has come under fire in recent months after Sean Strickland slammed Garry, believing that ‘The Future’ had willingly taken the name of his wife’s ex-husband. He even went so far as to suggest that she was still involved with her ex romantically — labeling Garry a “cuck” in the process.

The fact is, Machado is his wife’s maiden name from her mother’s side of the family and there is a very good reason why Garry decided to incorporate the name into his own.

“The truth is I only did it because I wanted my son and my stepson to really feel connected,” Garry said in an interview with CBS Sports. “I didn’t want them going through life with two separate surnames. I feel like there is a little bit of a disconnect. If you guys want to be brothers, I want to make sure you guys have that same connection.”

Another point of attack for Strickland was Garry’s unusually close relationship with his wife’s ex-husband — Richard Cullen — whom the couple regularly travels with. Cullen is a renowned sports nutritionist and was brought into Ian Garry’s camp by Layla Machado Garry in 2021.

“He’s an elite performance nutritionist and he’s really f*cking good at what he does,” Garry said. “To the point which we’ve done every single weight cut for the UFC and they’ve been easier every single time,” Garry said. “We’ve worked phenomenally together and I’m very proud of the work we’ve done.

“He’s also the father of my wife’s son. I never want to be a wedge between a father and a son. I never want that on my conscience. I know that we’re going on this adventure to travel the world. ‘Hey dude, want to travel the world, be my nutritionist and we can all do this together? You can come and see your son whenever you want.’ The two of them went to Disney this morning.”

Ian Machado Garry has no regrets over the way he has approached his opponents or his career

As an up-and-comer still trying to establish himself as a viable contender, Ian Garry’s brash and cocky style of selling fights will continue to invite some undesirable attention. Despite that, ‘The Future’ wouldn’t change anything about the way he has approached his opponents or his mixed martial arts career as a whole.

“I’m No. 10 in the world. I haven’t even touched the potential of where I know I’m going to get there. I haven’t touched the limelight of what I know is possible for my career. Yet I’m the most talked about fighter on this fight card. I was the most talked about fighter on the last fight card.

“I’m doing everything right in my way. There is nothing that went wrong other than people flipping the truth into lies and bullshit and running with it. The whole world right now is playing a game of Chinese whispers where they don’t actually know the f*cking truth.”

Ian Machado Garry returns to the Octagon this Saturday night, February 17 at UFC 298. He faces No. 8 ranked contender Geoff Neal as part of the event’s main card inside Anaheim’s Honda Center. Machado Garry enters the bout with a perfect record of 13-0 with six wins under the UFC banner.
