Colby 'Chaos' Covington wants to be the 'new McGregor' for Ultimate by using controversies to promote himself and generate public interest in the fights he takes part in. The North American fighter's main target is Brazil and the country's athletes. Now it's the champion's turn Rafael dos Anjos 'RDA' who faces 'chaos' at UFC 225 in search of the interim welterweight belt. In a promotional video for the event, Covington stated that he is the current 'King of Brazil'.

The co-main event duel started much earlier through interviews and on social media, mainly on the side of the North American who cursed Brazil several times.
In the video released by Ultimate, 'Chaos' continued to provoke 'RDA'. “He wants to come and defend his country, and I'm the king of Brazil right now and the people of Brazil want to see me dead, so he's going to come and try to do that. I’m looking forward to it,” Covington said.
Dos Anjos did not miss the opportunity to respond to his opponent's provocations and call him a “fake gangster”. “If he wants to talk nonsense, if you want to talk shit, you will get hit. You need to have the courage to face the problem”, replied the Brazilian fighter.
