UFC ranked welterweight Colby Covington said he hasn't fought in so long because he helped Donald Trump on the campaign trail.

"You know, I've been spending time with my friend Donald Trump, getting him ready for the campaign. So, I'm very excited about the direction our country is going. Everything I do, I do for God and country. That's more important than my own selfish plans to win UFC fights and become a world champion....

I'm still recovering from a broken leg, of course, but God and country come first," SubmissionRadio quoted Covington as saying.
