Gary Franchi of The Next News Network offered some positive news recently as he reported about Colby Covington’s UFC championship win and his special guests who sat at ringside.
Covington, who had just defeated Robbie Lawler stood with his new championship belt on one shoulder and the American flag draping the other offered a huge “Thank You” that surely made every progressive in America hopping mad.
Though he didn’t vote in the 2016 presidential election, Covington has since become a huge Trump supporter.
Speaking to James Lynch of the ScoreMMA, Covington explained that before becoming a Trump supporter he “didn’t feel the need to vote.” He told Lynch that when Trump came into office, he “honestly is making America great again.”
The brawler didn’t stop there during the interview with Lynch as he unloaded on Trump’s detractors. He said, “These are a bunch of hypocritical two-faced people that just wanna bring out every little thing and look at all the fake news narratives. That’s just not true.”
Covington said he never believed in Hillary Clinton saying, “She’s a fraud.”
He also promised, “I will be voting in 2020, you have my word on that.” A Florida resident, he didn’t see the value of his one vote but Covington said all that has changed.
Watch the video and see who sat at ringside at Covington’s match and thanked them for their support.
