Colby Covington blasts LeBron James over Diddy connection: "hope you get locked in the same cell"

UFC fighter Colby Covington accuses NBA's LeBron James of alleged ties to Sean "P. Diddy" Combs in a fiery rant.

Colby Covington has once again launched a verbal tirade against NBA icon LeBron James. For several years, 'Chaos' has targeted the four-time NBA champion online, mainly due to their differing opinions. This time, the UFC fighter is accusing the multi-time NBA MVP of being connected to renowned hip-hop artist and alleged sex trafficker/abuser Sean "P. Diddy" Combs.

The allegations about James' association with Diddy have been part of Covington's narrative since he spoke at the UFC Tampa pre-fight press conference. 'Chaos,' set to face Joaquin Buckley in the main event of the UFC's final card of the year, began his interview with a fiery critique of James, saying: "I'm going to start this off, you know, since I'm the man of the hour. The man of the show. I just wanna ask LeBron. What does he mean by, 'There's no party like a Diddy party'? I truly want to know. And not only that, LeBron, how many Diddy parties have you actually been to? I'm really curious to know."

Covington added: "Is that the reason why you don't have social media? Because of the backlash that you're going to get going to so many Diddy parties? Just pathetic, man. People think this guy is a role model. Wants to defund the police. The most patriot people in America. Serving and protecting our country. LeBron, you're a f*cking scumbag. And I hope you get locked up in the same cell with Diddy."

On Instagram, the former interim UFC welterweight champion shared an image that appeared to show James dressed in a French maid outfit alongside another photo of him with Diddy.

The internet remains divided over whether the French maid outfit image is authentic, as the NBA has not confirmed or denied its validity. However, it is evident that James has been seen associating with Diddy, an alleged offender. The extent of their connection remains unclear as more high-profile figures face scrutiny over their ties to Diddy.

LeBron James has not publicly addressed the rumors of his connection to P. Diddy, nor has he responded to Covington's years of verbal jabs, which include being labeled "Captain I Hate America" and criticized for his views on the police.
