Coming fresh off a win against Luke Rockhold, Brazilian middleweight Paulo Costa once again has wind in his sails after back-to-back losses against Israel Adesanya and Marvin Vettori.

In a new video, Costa goes off on Swedish superstar Khamzat Chimaev who will face Nate Diaz on Saturday’s UFC 279.

”I think Nate Diaz will beat him and Nate Diaz is a real gangster. Chimaev calls himself a real gangster, but Chimaev is not a real gangster. Nate Diaz is a real gangster,” Costa said.

The Brazilian then continued insulting the undefeated Swede.

”Fuck that guy. Fuck that guy. He’s not a real gangster. Nate Diaz will fuck him up. Okay? I’m with Nate Diaz all day, all day Nate Diaz,” Costa said.

Paulo Costa wants Chimaev or Robert Whittaker next

After getting back in the win column again at UFC 278, the top ranked Brazilian middleweight wants to fight No. 1 ranked Robert Whittaker, who just defeated Marvin Vettori in Paris, or Khamzat Chimaev if he will beat Diaz on Saturday.

”So if Chimaev beats Nate Diaz we can do this for my next one. It will be great as well. We have a lot of good fights to make. Chimaev, of course, if he beats Nate Diaz will be great, or Robert Whittaker for my next one,” Costa said.
