Paulo Costa Releases Mock Video Of UFC 253 Fight Against Israel Adesanya
Paulo Costa released a teaser video on how his UFC 253 title fight will go against Israel Adesanya.
Costa and Adesanya have a heated rivalry and in the lead-up to the fight, it has been intense with trash talk. Now, just weeks away from the fight, Costa brought in someone to mimic Adesanya where the Brazilian won by knockout. It is obviously a funny, joking video that Costa shared on his YouTube.

Israel Adesanya, meanwhile, defended his middleweight title for the first time at UFC 248 with a decision win over Yoel Romero. He won the belt back at UFC 243 with a knockout win over Robert Whittaker after defeating Kelvin Gastelum by decision to win the interim belt.
