Covington is proud of the fact that he has met the former President. During their meet, he also wore his ‘Make America Great Again’ hat. On the other hand, ‘Gamebred‘ was previously seen sharing a meal with Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr. The fighter had also posted their picture on Instagram.

Both the fighters met in Florida at American Top Team and had become friends. However, they had a fallout and Covington left the team. As a result, their relationship since then has only turned sour. So a fight among them would be absolutely smashing.
Further, both the fighters have also tried their luck against Kamaru Usman. Unfortunately, they were unable to secure the belt. But as two of the best UFC welterweights, Covington versus Masvidal was surely on the line.
