Bogdan Guskov expressed interest in fighting Paulo Costa, while Iwo Baraniewski claimed that Guskov declined a proposed bout between them. Baraniewski stated he accepted the fight but Guskov did not. Gor Azizyan criticized Guskov's callout pattern, suggesting he became vocal after defeating Kopylova and Azamat, and should have his "wings clipped." Azizyan added that if Guskov doesn't accept the fight, he should stop targeting Russian fighters. The post describes Guskov as a "Russian guy who grew up in Uzbekistan" ready to share the cage anytime.
