Paulo Costa and YouTuber Logan Paul had a sparring session last year
Costa has been the most active man on Twitter over the past few days. He has been posting controversial Tweets, answering a plethora of fans, mocking a few who attempt to troll or undermine him and whatnot.
The number 2 ranked UFC middleweight had a sparring session with YouTuber-turned boxer Logan Paul last year. Although he ends up knocking down ‘The Maverick’, he gets punched a couple of times in the face by the heavy hands of Paul.
More recently Costa was asked mockingly by a fan if it was him getting punched by a YouTuber, after the fan posted a short clip of Paul landing a nasty punch on Costa.
Rather than attacking the fan, Costa replied, acknowledging the talent of the YouTuber.
He wrote:
“Logan is a beast and I wasn’t even drunk.”
Logan Paul will take on Floyd Mayweather in an exhibition boxing match on the 6th of June at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami. The towering YouTuber is determined to hand Mayweather his first ever L in his career.
Paulo Costa was asked about his prediction for the fight. Borrachinha claimed that ‘The Maverick’ would end up defeating Mayweather.
Paul is coming off a loss against fellow YouTuber KSI in November 2019. That has been his only professional boxing fight in his career. He had previously fought KSI in an amateur bout, a year before that. The match ended in a draw.
Mayweather, on the other hand, last faced Conor McGregor in August 2017. He earned a 10th round TKO victory over the Irishman to record the 50th win of his career and finishing with a record of 50-0.
