Colby Covington claims President Trump’s sons will attend UFC Newark

There’s a high stakes main event taking place on Saturday afternoon in Newark, New Jersey, as Colby Covington looks to (presumably) clinch a welterweight title shot by beating legendary former UFC champ Robbie Lawler.

While we could discuss what a compelling matchup this is and whether Covington’s pressure and wrestling will be negated by Lawler’s takedown defense and powerful striking, you’re REALLY here to know whether or not Colby will have in-arena support from the Trump family.

Well guess what? Covington has got the (supposed) answer to that question you didn’t even know you asked.

In an interview with TMZ, Covington indicated that we’ll see two of US president Donald Trump’s sons at the Prudential Center.
