Quick read
Brazilian MMA fans are overwhelmingly supporting Azamat Murzakanov ahead of his fight with Brazilian Paulo Costa. The support is driven by Costa's controversial statements about Brazil's country, culture, and political decisions. Brazilian fans are leaving comments promising to build a monument to Murzakanov if he knocks out Costa, declaring him a national hero alongside Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, and Neymar. They are also posting photos of Murzakanov wearing Brazil national team kit. The unusual display shows deep domestic opposition to Costa within his own country.
