New footage coming out of Miami captured the moment Paulo Costa jumped the cage to speak to President Trump.
It was a big night of news for the U.S. president at UFC 327. He revealed the UFC White House poster and promo. He convinced Dana White to book Josh Hokit vs. Derrick Lewis for the card. And he was very, very complimentary towards Costa after the Brazilian fighterâs hard fought win against Azamat Murzakanov, which ended in a big head kick KO.
During the UFC 327 post-fight press conference, Costa refused to get into what he and Trump said when the two spoke cageside.
âAs for Trump, I just kind of jokingly talked to him and then I said some things that were personal,â Costa said. âSo just keep it a secret for now. It was just between us.â
Now we have video that shows Costa telling Trump âThank you for everything youâre doing.â
âYouâre a beautiful guy, great fight.â Trump replied.
Weâre not sure exactly what Paulo said in response, it sounds like âI could be a model if I stop fight[ing].â
âYou could be a model you look so good,â Trump agreed. âYouâre too good looking to be a fighter. You are some fighter. Thank you man.â
Costa laughed at the presser when that quote was revealed by a media member.
âYes that part was true,â he said with a smile. âThank you, Mr. Trump.â
If Trump was feeling any heat over his recent decision to take America to war with Iran, he didnât show it cageside at UFC 327.
As for Costa, heâs said after defeating this Russian (Murzakanov) he wanted another Russian (middleweight champion Khamzat Chimaev). Weâre not sure what this light heavyweight win does for âBorrachinhaâ at middleweight, but thereâs no denying Costa is looking refocused and impressive following a 1-4 skid between 2020 and 2024.
