Costa upset over missing bonus while Hokit received double award at UFC

Paulo Costa expressed significant frustration that Josh Hokit received a double bonus for his fight with Curtis Blaydes while Costa received no bonus at all. Costa argued that Hokit had an excellent heavyweight bout but questioned why he received two awards. The Brazilian emphasized that he finished his fight early against an undefeated Russian opponent with a 16-0 record, delivering hard strikes for three rounds. Costa stated he deserved a Performance of the Night bonus more than Hokit. He revealed he was so upset that he contacted Dana White and Hunter Campbell directly, expressing that the decision felt unjust and made him want to "destroy everything." Costa said he hopes and trusts that White and Campbell will take care of him and reconsider the decision, believing they made a mistake.
