In a recent callout to Paulo Costa, Sean Strickland, being true to his nature, said nothing but the truth.

In a recent interview with MMA Junkie, Strickland was asked about his next opponent of choice. He selected “Borrachinha,” who is presently negotiating his contract renewal with the UFC.

On Costa’s freshly enhanced Twitter skills, Strickland also praised the Brazilian’s sense of humour. The enduring middleweight contender, however, did not hold back from warning “Borrachinha” in an Inappropriate manner by bringing up his defeat to Israel Adesanya. Mike Bohn was told by the 32-year-old:

“Costa. I desire Costa. Costa and I are going to fight, in my opinion. We’re only waiting since I am aware that his contract is currently pretty fed. Costa is a witty mer. He’s fing sort of dumb, and coming from this [points at himself] fing guy, that says a lot. Even though he’s a humorous merer, I’m going to kneel him down and f** him just like Izzy.”

In 2020, Israel Adesanya successfully defended his title at UFC 253 by finishing Paulo Costa in the second round. Strickland was making reference to Adesanya’s exuberant post-fight celebration, during which “The Last Stylebender” subtly humped his defeated foe.
Strickland added that despite his present weight of 225 pounds, he just needs 8 to 10 weeks to get into fighting shape.

Paulo Costa weighs in on potential fight against Sean Strickland

Sean Strickland just finished a decisive unanimous decision victory against Nassourdine Imavov, snapping a two-fight losing streak. Strickland didn’t waste much time before calling out Paulo Costa last month after fighting twice in thirty days.

Strickland didn’t miss the chance to poke fun at Borrachinha’s usage of wine as an explanation for losing against Israel Adesanya even in his first callout.

Costa argued that the middleweight contender may have received too many headshots in response to Strickland’s callout. The formerly title-contending middleweight posted on Twitter:

Strickland is a fine man in his heart, but I believe one of his problems is that he has been shot multiple times in the head and is now sort of living with a concussion. He also makes jokes that are so dated that he can’t come up with anything new.

Costa also made light of the fact that he would fight Strickland for three octagon girls, $200k, and “special juice.”
