“Who’s Crying”- After Donald Trump Heaped Praises on Khabib Nurmagomedov and Kamaru Usman, Bitter Rival Colby Covington Trolled by Controversial Manager

As politics meets MMA, an unexpected drama unfolds. Ex-POTUS Donald Trump’s ties with the UFC are no secret. But how could he simply “cold-shoulder” his biggest fan? Well, we’re talking about Colby Covington – the brash American welterweight.  After Trump’s iconic exclusive interview with the UFC, his side-stepping of the American fighter puzzled many fans. Moreover, during his interview, he heaped praises on Kamaru Usman, the former UFC welterweight champ, calling him a “terrific guy” and a “fantastic fighter.” In the same vein, the 77-year-old also lauded Khabib Nurmagomedov, referring to him as a “seriously good fighter!”

Now, adding fuel to the fire, a notable behind-the-scenes manager has shared his hilarious take on Covington being ignored by Trump. But wait – who is this manager? Well, he’s none other than ‘The Eagle’s manager, who was allegedly an FBI informant in the past.

While Trump’s admiration for Usman is evident, fans and fighters alike were surprised to see that he made no mention of Colby Covington, who has been a vocal supporter of the former President in the past. This omission raised eyebrows, leaving ‘Chaos’s fans and supporters puzzled.

But it all took a surprising twist when Khabib’s manager joined the talks. Ali Abdelaziz couldn’t resist seizing the opportunity to add some humor to the situation. In a tweet, he took a playful jab at Covington, suggesting that the outspoken welterweight might be feeling a little upset about being ignored by Trump. Abdelaziz’s tweet read, “We know who’s crying right now 😂,” implying that ‘Chaos’ might not be too thrilled about being left out of the conversation.

Fans and MMA enthusiasts are divided over the significance of Trump’s words and the humor in Abdelaziz’s playful troll. Moreover, some fans believe that Covington’s omission was intentional. But other fans see it as a missed opportunity to praise a fighter who has been a vocal supporter of the former President.
