Joe Rogan’s Advice To Paulo Costa
Khamzat will return to the Octagon in October when the UFC visits Abu Dhabi once more. In his UFC career to date, “Borz” has never lost. He has competed in the UFC Octagon six times, winning each time. He has triumphed by submission three times, by TKO twice, and by unanimous decision once.
Borz is an incredibly skilled fighter, as he has often demonstrated to the world. However, as Joe Rogan recently noted in his podcast, he is not invincible. “The Joe Rogan Experience”. Joe said, “He (Khamzat Chimaev) showed that in Wars he’s hittable”. Joe Rogan was giving Paulo Costa, who will face Khamzat in October, a tip.

By making that remark, Joe Rogan implied that Paulo Costa is truly capable of defeating Khamzat. Khamzat has never lost, but that does not make him unbeatable. Paulo might even pull off the seemingly impossible and defeat him in October.
Many rumours surround Khamzat and the possibility that he will once again underweight for the forthcoming UFC event. He won’t be able to fight Paulo Costa if he doesn’t make weight, which will undoubtedly anger his supporters. It will be intriguing to watch what transpires on October 21 at UFC 294.
