Guskov wants Costa fight; Baraniewski claims Guskov declined their matchup

Bogdan Guskov has expressed his desire to fight Paulo Costa in the UFC octagon. However, Ivo Baraniewski claims that he accepted a fight with Guskov, but Guskov declined the bout. Baraniewski stated he is ready to share the cage at any time and intends to make Guskov "swallow his words." Gor Azizyan added commentary suggesting Guskov became more vocal after defeating Sergey Kopylko and Azamat, and that Guskov's "wings should be clipped." Azizyan also suggested that if Guskov doesn't accept the Baraniewski fight, he should stop discussing Russian-themed matters. The situation highlights tensions and callouts within the middleweight division.
