Joe Rogan thinks Israel Adesanya might have broken Paulo Costa after their middleweight title fight at UFC 253, with the renowned podcast host claiming the loss has taken a serious toll on ‘Borrachinha’s’ mental health.
Rogan says the fact that Adesanya is much skinner than Costa but still managed to put a beating on him will haunt the Brazilian for the rest of his professional career.
“I think Adesanya’s fight took a real toll on him mentally. There were so many excuses. And it was the way that Israel beat him. I mean, Izzy just lit him up like a Christmas tree.
