UFC Middleweight contender Paulo Costa is seemingly looking to get into a new form of competition and it is related to eating and not fighting. It looks like Paulo Costa wants to take on rising lightweight Paddy Pimblett. Costa called out Pimblett and wants to challenge him for an Ice-cream eating competition. He has also removed Joe Rogan and Herb Dean from their jobs and filled their spot with his own replacements.

Paulo Costa is one of the best middleweights in the world at the moment. But apart from fighting, he is also known for his antics outside the ring. Recently he had a humorous exchange with UFC lightweight Paddy Pimblett. Costa posted a funny animation video and thanked Pimblett for helping him out in cutting weight.

Costa went on to make perfect weight in his following fight against Luke Rockhold. Paulo won the fight against Luke Rockhold at UFC 278 via decision.

In an octagon interview with Joe Rogan, Costa calls out Pimblett and says that he is ready to mess up his stomach now and wants an ice cream competition.

Paulo Costa now posted an Instagram post in which he challenged Paddy Pimblett for an Ice-cream eating challenge.

“Mr Paddy let’s f**king go motherf**ker. 😡 I’m coming hungry to beat you by sub on this hard competition.🍦 ICE CREAM EAT CONTEST” 🍨 Weight cut season is over! Im inviting @arielhelwani as a referee 👮‍♂️ @theschmo312 as commentator? Thanks @manofightclub for this banner,” Paulo Costa wrote in the caption.

Joe Rogan and Herb Dean will have to sit out for this one

For this fantastic Ice-cream eating event, Paulo Costa has also brought in his own referee, Ariel Helwani, replacing Herb Dean. He replaced the top UFC commentator, Joe Rogan, with one of the most entertaining reporters, The Schmo.
