The recent debate between Lakers superstar LeBron James and football star Ibrahimovic on “whether stars should talk about politics” has aroused heated debate. The famous James Black UFC star Colby Covington jumped out again. Covington accused LeBron of being a hypocrite, and even sprayed him as a Chinese doll.
Covington shot LeBron directly with Twitter: “When are you going to talk about Hong Kong? Oh, you dare not, because you are just a Chinese doll! You easily made millions by talking about so-called social justice. But There is no doubt that you only need to pay a few cents to the Chinese women in the sweatshops to produce your products, soft eggs.”
When are you gonna speak up about Hong Kong @KingJames? Oh that’s right, you can’t. You’re a Chinese finger puppet! You make millions playing a kids game & talk about “social justice” but have no problem paying Chinese women in sweatshops pennies to make your products. Slimeball. https://t.co/nPhD5OQEOC

LeBron has always dared to speak up on sensitive topics such as political events and social justice. LeBron has repeatedly criticized former US President Trump. At the same time, LeBron has also come forward many times for some racial discrimination issues.
However, LeBron’s frequent discussion of political topics also attracted other people’s doubts. In an interview, football star Ibrahimovic said: “I don’t recommend celebrities with status to talk about politics. You can do your own thing. Just like I play football, I don’t talk about what I’m not good at. field.”
In this regard, LeBron also unceremoniously shot back: “I will never keep silent about what I think is wrong. The premise of my voice is that I have done my homework.”
After LeBron responded, Covington stood up and attacked him. And this is not the first time Covington has bombarded LeBron. Covington is a loyal Trump supporter, and LeBron has always been on the opposite side. Covington once accused LeBron of being a “spineless coward” after a game. In the face of Covington’s provocations again and again, LeBron did not bother to respond.
