When Colby Covington Recalled His Hilarious Encounter With Donald Trump: “Those Brick for Hands”

UFC’s very own ‘King of Chaos,’ Colby Covington is one of the most controversial fighters on the roster. There have been many instances in his career where he’s gained haters due to his choice of words.

Covington is a big talker, but is one of the few fighters who can actually live up to his trash talk. As of March 2022, the fighter is the number one ranked welterweight in the world.

Covington is very vocal about his support for the United States and is a true American patriot. The fighter is also very fond of the former US president, Donald Trump. In an interview, Covington revealed a funny conversation he had with Trump.

The fighter implied that Donald Trump had a very strong handshake. He said,” I got the open invitation to Mar-a-Lago and you know, Donald Trump told me after I got out of the cage. He’s like, I want to shake your hand again in the White House. So I’ll be going back to the White House soon. And he’s like, just don’t break my hand when you shake it, Colby. And I’m like Mr.President… Come on, I felt those bricks for hands last time.”

What’s next for Colby Covington?

Colby Covington is one of the most well-rounded fighters on the roster right now. Covington won his recent fight at UFC 272 against his former best friend Jorge Masvidal. 

After beating one of his biggest rivals in the UFC, Covington already knows which fight he wants next. 

Covington has called out ‘The Diamond’ after his recent win, and took a dig at him right after his fight. Dustin Poirier was also keen on making the move to the welterweight division, and being the first ranked lightweight, a fight against ‘Chaos’ would be perfect for him to land a title shot.  

Covington has already started to build up the hype for this fight, and it is very likely it’ll go down in the future.
