And that\u2019s exactly what happened. When he got beat up by Demian Maia and then I went in there and I completely destroyed Demian Maia in his home country, that\u2019s when the relationship started to get a little bit different. He started to act different towards me like a competitor. I know it\u2019s not the MAGA stuff that gets him mad, Ariel because he\u2019s a big Donald Trump fan.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Colby Covington continued:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was one thing after another,\u201d Covington continued. \u201cIt was the Demian Maia thing, he started to get bitter and jealous. And then as soon as I won the world title, like I had him in my corner for that fight and he never even showed up that week to help me. He didn\u2019t show up to help warm up with me. I knew he was making it all about himself and he wasn\u2019t truly happy for me and my success. All he cares about is himself. That\u2019s all Jorge is. [He\u2019s] a guy that cares for himself.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe doesn\u2019t care for others and he doesn\u2019t care for anybody unless they can do something for him and I\u2019m not that guy. I\u2019m not gonna always just do stuff for you and then be taken for granted. Now I passed him up, I\u2019m making more money than him, I\u2019m banging hotter chicks than him.
