It seems like the world hasn’t gotten over the Oscar incident that took place in March 2022. Hollywood star Will Smith slapped comedian Chris Rock on the stage. After the latter commented on Smith’s wife. The internet has been squeezing memes out of the incident since then.

Now, the former middleweight title challenger Paulo Costa has also shared one on his official Twitter account.

The Brazilian middleweight prodigy Paulo ‘The Eraser’ Costa is highly active on social media. From time to time, he posts hilarious and uncanny tweets on his account.

Further in the video, there is a famous line by the UFC legend Conor McGregor that became an instant hit. “Your wife is in me dm’s hey baby,” McGregor had said during his blockbuster trilogy with Dustin Poirier.

‘The Notorious’ suffered a gruesome leg injury during his trilogy with Poirier at UFC 264. He lost the fight via a knockout. This frustrated McGregor and he said those famous lines in the octagon interview with Joe Rogan.

Now it has become a highly used meme in the MMA community and Costa shared the same with the caption, “how can you not love this sh*t?”

Who is Paulo Costa fighting next?

The Brazilian is currently running on a two-fight skid in his UFC career. He lost a title fight in 2020. Later, he lost another match last year via a decision. Notably, he also faced issues making weight for his last fight.

Interestingly, the promotion is also working to make this fight happen. The middleweight bout is targeted for a pay-per-view in July 2022. Costa’s next opponent, Rockhold, is also on a two-fight skid. Moreover, he is returning to action after a long hiatus.

Hence, this fight is a chance for both the middleweight combatants to map the way back to the win column and ultimately get close to the 185lbs title.
