Paulo Costa, a UFC middleweight, spoke in detail about why he pulled out of his fight against Khamzat Chimaev.

“The problem is that staph infection is not a joke, I got it in Brazil. I took antibiotics to kill her. It seemed that everything was decided, so I came to Abu Dhabi, but everything turned out to be even worse than before. Five weeks before the fight, an operation was performed to clean everything out and take antibiotics for another 14 days. They said that it was not possible to release me for the fight on the 21st. For those who said that I ran away, go to hell,” the fighter said.

Let us remind you that the fight between Costa and Chimaev was supposed to take place on October 21 in Abu Dhabi as part of UFC 294.
