At one point, Lil Pump’s body goes limp, but Colby doesn’t let go. Pump struggles at first to free himself, but at one point, his body gives way and his eyes open wide.
It’s unclear how long Colby held onto the pump. The video begins with Covington choking on Pump and the UFC fighter can be seen tightening his grip. It lasted for about 10 seconds before Covington released the hold.
The pump looks like you are about to tap out, but you are tapping on your own chest. A typical drill is to tap out on your opponent’s body or the ground.
Some fans were outraged… the former UFC champion should not have tried the move on a non-MMA opponent. Some fans criticized the person filming the video, saying he should have intervened.

Colby played the whole thing off as a joke, but some say it’s dangerous, given the sensitive people who might try to emulate him.
