According to Covington, not only will Trump be attending UFC 296 but he will wrap the belt around Colby if he can beat Leon Edwards this Saturday.
“Donald Trump will be in attendance on Saturday night and he’s going to wrap that belt around me. I love Dana White but I’ve just asked Dana, if you could let Donald put it around me, so it’s going to be a spectacle”
“It doesn’t matter who they put in front of me this Saturday, they could put the Hulk in there, no one is beating me in front of Donald Trump, we’re going to make America great again, and we’re going to make the UFC welterweight division great again because Leon’s made an absolute joke of it.”
