Reportedly, the two-time welterweight title challenger Masvidal attacked Covington after the latter had dinner with the Nelk boys at the Papi Steak house at Miami beach.

Consequently, ‘Chaos’ pressed charges against ‘Gamebred’ and he was arrested by the Miami Beach Police in less than 48 hours after launching an alleged attack. However, the Californian received mixed reactions for pressing charges against his nemesis.

While many among the MMA community were choosing sides in the conflict, the former middleweight title challenger Paulo Costa had a piece of savage advice for Masvidal.

Whilst taking a nasty dig at the Floridian UFC fighter, Costa posted a meme and wrote in the caption, “Be strong Masvidal. Dot get the soap on the ground.”

‘The Eraser’ in 2020 lost his first-ever title fight against his nemesis and champion Israel Adesanya. Unfortunately, he also lost his recent bout in October 2021. The Brazilian is currently running on a two-fight skid and is out of action. However, he is always in the news about his unusual Twitter posts.

Apparently, the Brazilian middleweight wasn’t the only fighter who chimed in on the conflict. UFC lightweight legend Khabib Nurmagomedov also expressed his brutally honest thoughts on the brawl.
