The fight between top ranked middleweight Paulo Costa and undefeated Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 294 is one of the most anticipated fights of the year. The two rivals have traded social media jabs since their encounter at the UFC Performance Institute last year.

In a new social media post, the Brazilian threatens the top ranked and undefeated welterweight contender, and vows to stop him in his tracks.

“Gourmet Chen Chen has no chance, zero, no chance. I’m going to destroy him – dead man walking. Dead man walking right there in Chechnya. I come to fuck you in your fucking house, motherfucker. Training hard every single day, I have no days off. Look at this face, look at this face. Look right here, gourmet Chen Chen: the man who is going to kill you,” Costa said.

I’m your bigger NIGHTMARE. BLF is coming to erase you 🧢🧁 gourmet Chen Chen pic.twitter.com/RIn8k2Dgem
