Who was the first one to knock down Paulo Costa?

[ijngf]

I know Romero was definitely not the first one, so who was the first one? He was once knocked down in TUF by Marcio Alexandre. Was that the first one?

Lol almost forgot about that. Romero went full three stooges on him.

But actually Costa did not look to that direction. He should not have used that as the excuse for being knocked down.

Uriah Hall I think

Interestlingly, they did not count it as a knockdown.

But UFC did not count it as a knockdown according to official statistics.

re-wrote the question
Was Marcio Alexandre the first one to knock down Costa ?

re-wrote it again
Back when they had the show TUF. A guy by the name of Marcio Alexandre fought the one and only Paulo Costa. And if my memory serves me right i believe he knocked Costa down. Do you think there was anyone before him that knocked Costa down ? If you happen to know please respond below !!

The romero thing was more of a slip or push down not a knockdown, so they didnt score it as one.

Wtf seriously? He definitely got knocked down lol

 

[Stalkingsquid]

This was an interesting fight, Paulo took some shots and showed his chin, but theres also the 2 low blows to Uriah.
But he also seems to have improved leaps and bounds by the time he fought Romero.

Jones did a number on him.
