Guskov calls out Costa, declines Baraniewski fight per opponent's claim

Bogdan Guskov has expressed his desire to share the octagon with Paulo Costa. However, according to Ivo Baraniewski, he agreed to fight Guskov but Bogdan declined the matchup. Baraniewski stated he is ready to compete anytime and wants to make Guskov "swallow his words." Gor Azizyan supported Baraniewski's position, suggesting Guskov became overconfident after beating Anatoly Kopylova and Azamat, and that his "wings need to be clipped." Azizyan added that if Guskov doesn't accept the fight with Bogdan, he should stop talking about "Russian themes." The situation highlights tensions in the middleweight division and questions about Guskov's willingness to accept certain matchups.
