Guskov calls out Costa, denies Baranievski accepted their matchup

Bogdan Guskov expressed interest in fighting Paulo Costa in the UFC octagon. According to Ivo Baranievski, he agreed to face Guskov, but Bogdan declined the bout. Guskov identified himself as a Russian guy who grew up in Uzbekistan and stated he is ready to share the cage anytime. His coach Gor Azizyan commented that after Guskov's wins over Kopylova and Azamat, he has been talking too much and needs to have his wings clipped. Azizyan suggested that if Guskov doesn't accept the fight with Bogdan, he should stop promoting the "Russian theme."
