Paulo Costa comes clean with his recent selfie with fellow UFC fighter, Tracy Cortez. The Brazilian fighter recently sparked a wildfire when he posted a selfie with the UFC women’s flyweight fighter. The post soon seized headlines as it prompted hilarious reactions from MMA fans. Not only those deductions included the rumors of the linkup between the two but also the hypothetical fight between Cortez’s ex-boyfriend Brian Ortega and ‘Borrachinha ‘.

The reactions from fans poked fun at the middleweight fighter, who has a sizeable and active presence on social media. After teasing the fans for a long, he finally broke his silence and revealed the reason behind the picture that broke the internet.

Paulo Costa opens up about the selfie with Tracy Cortez

The 32-year-old again turned to his widely followed Twitter handle as he urged the fans to stop bullying him on the selfie. Further, he clarified to fans “nothing happened”.

He wrote, “Good morning mtfks . I mean me and Tracy are just friends, nothing happened, we just took a selfie for a mutual friend 🤳. Stop bullying 😂🙏”.

When the image gained traction, Ortega had an amusing tweet in the store. The featherweight fighter’s relationship with Cortez became public knowledge in 2020 and since then, the pair made various appearances together. The pair were also engaged at one point. But the pair soon ran into hiccups, as the rumors of their split turned the fans’ heads earlier this year. While the exact reason for their split is not known, the latest tweet by ‘T-City’ drops a clue.

The #3 ranked featherweight wrote, “Everyone out here talking bout I fumbled. Y’all must not know the rules of the game. When you drop the ball on accident that’s a fumble , but when you throw it away on purpose. That’s called a complete pass . Top G shit!“
