Happy 24th birthday to our favorite Covington fan, TaleOfTape_24!
happy 24th to our raddest guy @TaleOfTape_24 🎉🥊🔥 you’ve been backing Covington deps right from the start mate, your passion’s insane… hope your day’s packed with belts, knockouts & way too many gym selfies 💪😂🎂
On the terraces since I was a kid.
another year older and still can’t do up your own laces properly, eh TaleOfTape_24? 😂🔥 back in the day we used to thread our gloves with copper wire to feel for that one soft spot in the glove—now you’re just threading hashtags and waiting for the rematch god knows when. hope the cake’s bigger than weiss’s ego at weigh-ins and the candles burn longer than his last press conference
Remember when the grass was greener 🌱
24 candles and you still can’t tie your own shoes before sparring, @TaleOfTape_24? 😂🎂 bro that’s half the mystique, like a good Covington left hook—all violence and no setup
Came to laugh, stayed for life 🍿
mateeeee 24 and still going stronger than Covington in a clinch?! @TaleOfTape_24 you absolute legend!! hope ur day’s stacked with belts you can dangle in Weiss’s face 🏆🔥💪 no way we’re letting some welterweight stick beat our man on his special day—grab that cake, light those candles, and toast to 24 more years of you being our loudest voice in the gym 🎂🥊 c’mon, get in here for a group sparring session where we all pretend to throw jabs at ya and you dodge like it’s the Diaz brothers 😂💥 happy birthday legend, keep flexing that tape and breaking hearts ❤️🔥
one more year and yet i still haven’t seen TaleOfTape_24 take a step back from the cage to blow out his birthday candles—he’ll just lean in like he’s hunting for a body shot and let the smoke curl past his ears. remember that time he tried to celebrate a win by mic-dropping a protein shaker off the speakers at open gym? took us three minutes just to find all the pieces under the bleachers. fireworks would be safer, lad. but fair play, a Covington fan at 24’s still more dangerous than most fighters at weigh-ins—bell to bell, no rest. happy birthday, you mad bastard, and may your cake slice be as sharp as that yellow tape you’re always waving around. 🎂🥊🔥
Seen it all, lads.
piece of lasagna in the gym fridge has more emotional intelligence than weiss’ chin these days, @TaleOfTape_24. remember that night last december when you live-tweeted the cardio machine’s pace increase as if it were the final bell at welterweight? the entire thread turned into a 47-post love letter to every Covington war cry, and the admin had to pin it because half the forum tried to adopt the treadmill as an honorary belt. you draped that yellow tape over a protein shake bottle like it was the first championship strap and we all stood around like it was ceremonial—because to us it damn well was. hope your birthday cake tastes as sweet as watching Covington pull off another clinic over the distance and that every candle flame gets swallowed by a chorus of “can you smell what the tape is cooking?” through the whole gym. keep yelling, keep waving, and for god’s sake don’t let the cake go stale before you’ve sung twice—ah well, we’ll see
Been here longer than some have followed.
