I think Costa is a little more of a bully than he realizes. He mushed Oluwale Bamgbose in their face-off. Mind you, Oluwale is also Yoruba, same as Israel so maybe Israel noted that. And he felt Costa would do the same thing again in their face-off so there's that angle.
I'm entering wild speculation mode but I would like an interviewer to ask.
I'm gonna check that out. Also they had that prior issue of when Costa supposedly didn't know who Izzy was, and during the build up Costa mentioned how he disliked Izzy for being disrespectful or something.I think Costa is a little more of a bully than he realizes.

He couldn't, but did he try though ? To bully I mean, not back and forth provocation between the twoNo, that was his problem, he couldnt. When the bully sees no fear he capitulates.
That's what I know about the beginning as well, I thought I might have missed something else Paulo did....I remember pretty well adesanya insulting paulo with middle fingers up on top of the cage for no reason...
I'm not suggesting that Costa was aware. I'm suggesting that Israel was aware that Costa likes to mush people in face-offs and that maybe he wanted some retribution for his blood-brother(??).Not to take from Paulo's education but I doubt Costa knows the difference between nigerian ethnicities.
seems like a stretch to me also suprised he is yoruba, is Usman Yoruba too?I'm not suggesting that Costa was aware. I'm suggesting that Israel was aware that Costa likes to mush people in face-offs and that maybe he wanted some retribution for his blood-brother(??).

I think Usman is Edo. He's from Auchi in southern Nigeria. But I'm not totally sure.seems like a stretch to me also suprised he is yoruba, is Usman Yoruba too?
Him being muslim I would of thought he would be Hausa or sth.
Interesting thats a pretty big sin in islam, although apostasy apparently isn't that much of a deal in west african countriesI think Usman is Edo. He's from Auchi in southern Nigeria. But I'm not totally sure.
I think he was born Muslim but he's now Christian.
