Paulo Costa tried to provoke Azamat Murzakanov during their pre-fight face-off, but the Russian fighter responded only with smiles. The interaction occurred during fight week proceedings ahead of their weekend bout. Murzakanov appeared unaffected by Costa's attempts at psychological warfare. The Brazilian veteran's provocation tactics failed to rattle his opponent. Their fight is scheduled to take place this weekend, though the specific event details are limited in the post.
