It's still interesting to see how Costa is on the radar every few months and basically everyone is talking about him all year round despite him actually fighting so rarely. I would expect the consequent media following increawe is a big plus for Costa independent of his actual fighting perfomances. It probably works for him since even if he loses his next fight, it will be too Costly for Dana to cut out the fan favourite, which gives Costa more power in the contract negotiations.
Because he has a reputation for being a beast, back when he was fighting more regularly. And now, as this video touches upon, he has a strong Social Media game.
Some fighters carry a mystique that puts them on the radar despite the lack of recent success. Luke Rockhold being a meme Jorge Masvidal being cool Connor McGregor being Connor Nate Diaz being a badass. Derrick Lewis being funny Costa's social media game Ferguson being weird MVP GIFS All these guys have been riding off on reputation in spite of their lack of success.
@@SiopaoClub Don't forget Colby Covington's trash talk. His inactivity created a mystique that he was some kind of special, once in a generation cardio fighter who would have been champ for a long time if it weren't for Kamaru Usman. Well, that is until Leon Edwards pretty much dominated him thus proving Colby's critics correct in that he was overrated.
@@x8jason8xDude can you read his full sentence though...He mentioned recent performances...Yes he still make a lot of money but last time he won are against washed cowboy in catchweight...In lightweight division, last time he won was 2016 vs Eddie Alvarez
Paulo is one of my favourite fighters, both in the cage and on the mic. But I have learned to not pay too close of attention to when he is booked, I watch most UFC cards anyway so I just enjoy whenever he shows up
@scottc2076 either way kid doesn't wanna fight. He's either pulling out or not accepting fights at all. He didn't even want the Marvin fight and thought Marvin wouldn't have agreed to 205 and then pushed off the rockhold fight as long as he could. What has Costa done in the last 4 years that makes it look like he wants to continue fighting in the ufc? He's less active than Colby. Dana should let him box Logan Paul.
Why Costa still has any fans at all is a mystery to me. It’s an even bigger mystery why he hasn’t been cut from the promotion yet or at least lost his #6 ranking. Dude definitely has some dirt on Dana or something
Yk at this point i’m not even invested in it anymore, after he made VETTORI of all ppl look classy and like the good guy with the shenanigans he pulled, I’ll believe he’s fighting when he’s making the walk to the octagon.
Can you do a video about showtime? Now that they are gone it would be cool to talk about the state of boxing and how this might affect boxers big pay days since I don’t think it’s a big profit for the companies.
I'm from Brazil and honestly i think i speak for most of brazilians when i say that we had enough of Costa bullshit, i know people from the USA love him for posting funny memes on twitter and stuff but here we kinda dont like him anymore we just don't, dude had so many good oportunities but never shows up to fight , he said he was gonna get 1 million in his new contract but guess what he hasnt fought since then, so many pull outs, the vettori fight where he basically didnt even try to make weight and behaved like an absolute clown for no reason, i like his style and fights dont get me wrong but it seems like he is throwing his best years to fight in the trash can being so inactive, i guess it doesnt help at all having his girlfriend as his manager lol, maybe there is still hope for him but i think his career in the ufc is on thin ice to be over
Your from Brazil and you do not speak for most brazilians. (literally impossible, not to mention hes brazil's most paid UFC fighter.... the #s don't lie)
@@warmanreaperdude im just saying how it is .if you go thru any big brazilian mma channel or page and look up for paulo costa content you will see that the comments are filled with people trashing him for being a clown and not fighting its almost unanimous, the brazilian fan base moved on from him , we have other fighters that actually want to fight and show the world how good mma is in Brazil like Charles, Poatan, Pantoja and many more those are the ones we care about and root for
A lot of its on him but he gives the ufc more than a day or two heads up when he is gonna have problems so i doubt he'll get cut. Hes not ruining events the night before and they dont want to see PFL scoop him up.
Hi TJ, great video as always. I would love for you to explore Colby Covington's claims of UFC almost cutting him for being boring... I've always wondered why people believe him. If Paulo can pull this shit and not be cut and Belal and Magny being boirn AF and never being threatened to be cut off from the roster, why do people believe Colby's claims? Or maybe I'm missing something... Thanks if you ever cover this topic..
right, I'm under the impression that Dana White has a such a monopoly on top talent that he basically does whatever he wants. Undeserved title shots, coddling certain fighters, dumping USADA for selfish promotional reasons. yet when it comes to absolute jokes like this and other examples, the hardass dana is nowhere to be found
The UFC is known to announce big fights before they actually send out the contracts to strong-arm fighters into taking the bouts. Maybe shed some lights on the UFC business practices instead of solely blaming Costa. Look at Gastelum being a company man to the point that he literally wasted his potential.
Idk why the ufc keeps promoting fights he hasn’t signed for. Like I understand if usually u take a fighters verbal guarantee but he obviously doesn’t keep his word
It’s so funny how easily the UFC sets these narratives. So many of the fights mentioned, Paulo was saying he never signed any contracts and it probably wasn’t going to happen. Not his fault if the UFC announces bouts that haven’t been signed on to yet
Nope, I don't buy it. No reason for the UFC to sabotage a fan favorite. He either has the world's 2nd worst manager next to Joshua Fabia, or he really doesn't wants to fight. Honestly any figher in the top 15 could fuck him up.
That’s not how it works Dana signs in multiple fight contracts the only fight that the UFC lied in and said Paulo was going to fight in was the fight with Jared Cannoneir the rest he actually just pulled out due to other complications
Maaan i swear Whittaker vs. Costa is gonna be the new Ferguson vs. Khabib 😭😭I bet in three years we will gave the seventh attempt on making this fight happen
Cannonier a real one for not taking offense over Costa pulling out of their fight due to contractual disputes. Even though Paulo got between Jared and his meal, Jared saw the long-term vision, and he was down with the cause.
Paulos social media game really put him up there for me, but the guy needs to prove again he is actually a decent fighter. Or go into comedy, im quite sure he could be endearing and 1000x better than brendun shwuab
Agree it’s annoying to see such an entertaining and skilled fighter pull out of fights this often, but to be fair at least 2 of the fights shouldn’t be counted as ‘scheduled’ if he didn’t even agree to the fight (dirty tactic by Dana) and another 1 for an injury (potentially 2, if the flu was legit)
He doesnt wanna get popped for his secret juice use. He needs time to Cycle off that sauce. Physique wise he like a Vitor Belfort and we all know they type of gear Vitor had in his prime 😂
The fact that Costa has 1 win since 2019...against unranked Rockhold and is still ranked #6 is just madness
let`s be honest .. he lost it .
@@user-hg9cv2hi5g nah I dont think So but even tho its like keeping Conor ranked even tho he had no win in few years...

I haven't considered him a full-time, serious fighter in years.
Dana - "Kid doesn't wanna fight."
But seriously Paulo doesn't wanna fight anymore. Dana should let him go box.
He wont even do that lmao he'll still pull out
He didn’t want to do it for 70k, now that he has a new contract he shouldn’t be pulling out
@scottc2076 that new contract isn't even new anymore that was almost a year ago and he hasn't fought once since the "new" contract

People forget the aura around him before the Izzy fight. A lot of people thought he would destroy Izzy comparing both of their fights with Romero
He actually said on the MMA hour that this upcoming fight with Whitaker isn't even signed yet lol.
