Bringing you the weird and wild from the world of MMA each and every weeknight!
Welcome to Midnight Mania!
Paulo Costa is quickly becoming one of the most entertaining fighters in mixed martial arts (MMA) today. From his high-octane fighting to his hilarious social media accounts, the Brazilian knockout artist understands how to expand his following and keep things interesting. That’s why Costa was willing to engage in a raw liver eating contest with social media influencer, Liver King.
Costa was in attendance at Bellator 286’s weigh ins on Friday and eventually sparked a conversation with the man known for eating raw liver and testicles. After comparing six packs the two men sat down along Patricky Freire to enjoy some raw liver in a friendly eating contest (shown above courtesy of MMA Fighting).
Of course, Liver King smashed the competition. The social media personality soared to victory as Costa and “Pitbull” struggled to put their food down. Costa even had his “Secret Juice” and couldn’t get the job done.
