Colby Covington explains why it 'made sense' for Donald Trump to name Russia's Khabib Nurmagomedov.
who some of his favorite UFC fighters were, one name came up: Khabib Nurmagomedov— not Colby Covington, the former interim champion thought to be a shoo-in for the president elect's favor.
Snubbed for Nurmagomedov, how did that sit with Colby Covington, the first champion to be invited to The White House? "We want good relations with Russia, so it made sense to go that route. We want peace in the Middle East. We want peace around the world. We don't want Russia going after Ukraine. We need more peace. So, I'm happy."
Thank you for always being the champion the people of America need Mr. President! God bless you and the entire Trump Family for always putting America First! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
