LeBron James fired back at UFC fighter Colby Covington, who called him a ‘spineless coward’.

Covington is a Donald Trump supporter and against the Black Lives Matter movement.

“I want to dedicate this fight to all the first responders, all the military out there. This world would not be safe without you guys, you keep us safe, and not these woke athletes. I’m sick of these spineless cowards like LeBron James,” Covington said in his post-game interview after beating Tyron Woodley.

“Anybody can talk from outside but if they got into the ring or got into the arena, probably 10 times out of 10, they’d s—- their pants,” James said after Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals against the Denver Nuggets.
