Bogdan Guskov calls for Paulo Costa fight, turns down Baranievski bout

Bogdan Guskov has expressed interest in fighting Paulo Costa while declining a proposed bout with Ivo Baranievski. According to Baranievski, he accepted the fight with Guskov, but Bogdan did not accept the matchup. Guskov, described as a Russian fighter who grew up in Uzbekistan, stated he is ready to compete in the cage at any time and intends to make his opponent "swallow those words." His coach Gor Azizyan commented that Guskov has become vocal after victories over Kopylova and Azamat, suggesting it is time to "clip his wings" and questioning his commitment to the "Russian theme" if he declines the fight with Bogdan. The post questions whether fans would like to see this potential matchup.
