Fun fact about #6 ranked Paulo Costa

[Dana's Conscience]

He doesn't have a single win over someone on the active roster

Costa's UFC wins/Year of last UFC fight

-Garreth McLellan/2017
-Oluwale Bamgbose/2017
-Johny Hendricks/2017
-Uriah Hall/2022
-Yoel Romero/2020
-Luke Rockhold/2022

Dana says it's never a good idea for fighters to sit on the shelf, but there's so much evidence to the contrary that idk why someone would ever fight more than once every 2-3 years if they can afford not to. Colby just got a title shot after almost two years on the shelf. Stipe will get one after over three (and getting violently knocked out in his last fight), and now Costa gets #3 ranked Robert Whittaker after the Izzy disaster L, the Vettori weight disaster L, and a competitive win over washed Rockhold that ended with Costa in bottom position getting blood smeared on his face.

It's funny with that level of inactivity you'd think he'd have been forgotten by now but he is still talked about as if he's actually going to fight again.

 

[Unheralded Truth]

Yeah, but did you know he's playing around on twitter bro? Such a cool guy!

 

[ThaiSexPills]

Yup and then he’ll claim to be fighting and everybody who loves his big muscles and tweets will gobble that shit up. He’ll talk for months but never sign a contract or if he does, he’ll back out again.

He needs to be cut

Arguably lost the Romero fight
Was getting beat standing by Hall until he cheated
Got tuned by the ghost of Luke Rockhold, who looked like he didn't even wanna be there. Had to struggle to win.
Played the bullshit game with Vettori, getting them to move the fight to 205 lbs like a week before the fight, while he made 0 attempt to cut weight from the time it was scheduled at 185 then 195 then pushed finally to 205. Gets easily beaten by Marvin even while pulling that weight bs.

Dude has no business in the top10 and I'd say he has no business in the UFC.

2023 has been such a good year

Shit man I wish I could not work and keep my job…

But fighting is all about momentum, inside and outside the cage. Costa has just about lost all the momentum he’s won in the UFC. To casual fans I doubt they know him other than the guy that got buttfucked by Adesanya.

 

[Objectively Correct]

Damn who gives a fuck. Paulo fights are fun. I swear yall are allergic to fun sometimes.

Vettori fight he got smacked around, the Rockhold fight he looked like complete trash.
He got man raped in the Izzy fight, and many people thought he lost the Yoel fight (Which admittedly was fun)...other than that he's wayyyyyy overrated.

Only thing is... he's not getting paid.

why fight and risk your ranking when you can keep it by entertaining 12 year olds on twitter and pretending you have a fight coming up every 8 months

Oh true.
But he doesn’t seem to be hurting for cash if he’s getting hair transplants and not working.
