Israel Adesanya has called out Paulo Costa after his win over Yoel Romero. Israel who is known for producing dazzling performances seemed to miss the mark this time around with both fighters hardly engaging. Adesanya had a lot to say about Paulo costa branding him a ‘’coward’’ and a ‘’ Bafoonus ignoramus’.

Speaking to Joe Rogan after the fight, Israel Adesanya said

‘’ Joe I have had over 100 fights in my life and 80 kickboxing fights. He thinks he ‘s going to come forward and F*** with me. We all know who the baddest mother f***** is.’’

Despite his confidence, it was a sharp contrast to what we saw in the fight. Both fighters hardly engaged in the first round with the Referee issuing a warning.
