Quick read
Former UFC title challengers Colby Covington and Chris Weidman will face each other in a professional wrestling match on May 30 at the RAF09 tournament. Covington brings a 17-5 overall record (12-5 in UFC) while Weidman holds a 16-8 career mark (12-8 in UFC). This represents a departure from MMA competition for both fighters, as they will be competing under freestyle wrestling rules rather than in a mixed martial arts bout. The announcement indicates both veterans are exploring opportunities outside traditional MMA competition. Further details about the event or the specific ruleset were not provided in the original post.
