Additionally, the card will see the return of Islam Makhachev and Nassourdin Imavov. Costa was scheduled to make his return against Ikram Aliskerov at UFC 291 in Salt Lake City, Utah next week, but that 185-pound clash didn&#8217;t really make sense. However, a fight against the former welterweight is clearly a can&#8217;t refuse offer.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"3xU3ET3rXS\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/mmamag.ma\/%d9%85%d8%a7%d9%8a%d9%83-%d8%aa%d8%a7%d9%8a%d8%b3%d9%88%d9%86-%d9%8a%d8%b3%d8%aa%d8%ac%d9%8a%d8%a8-%d9%84%d8%b7%d9%84%d8%a8-%d8%a7%d9%84%d9%83%d8%a7%d9%85%d9%8a%d8%b1%d9%88%d9%86%d9%8a-%d9%81%d8%b1\/\">\u0645\u0627\u064a\u0643 \u062a\u0627\u064a\u0633\u0648\u0646 \u064a\u0633\u062a\u062c\u064a\u0628 \u0644\u0637\u0644\u0628 \u0627\u0644\u0643\u0627\u0645\u064a\u0631\u0648\u0646\u064a \u0641\u0631\u0627\u0646\u0633\u064a\u0633 \u0646\u063a\u0627\u0646\u0648 \u0636\u062f \u0641\u064a\u0648\u0631\u064a \u0642\u0628\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u0646\u0632\u0627\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u062a\u0627\u0631\u064a\u062e\u064a \u0628\u0627\u0644\u0633\u0639\u0648\u062f\u064a\u0629<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;\u0645\u0627\u064a\u0643 \u062a\u0627\u064a\u0633\u0648\u0646 \u064a\u0633\u062a\u062c\u064a\u0628 \u0644\u0637\u0644\u0628 \u0627\u0644\u0643\u0627\u0645\u064a\u0631\u0648\u0646\u064a \u0641\u0631\u0627\u0646\u0633\u064a\u0633 \u0646\u063a\u0627\u0646\u0648 \u0636\u062f \u0641\u064a\u0648\u0631\u064a \u0642\u0628\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u0646\u0632\u0627\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u062a\u0627\u0631\u064a\u062e\u064a \u0628\u0627\u0644\u0633\u0639\u0648\u062f\u064a\u0629&#8221; &#8212; MMAMAG.MA\" src=\"https:\/\/mmamag.ma\/%d9%85%d8%a7%d9%8a%d9%83-%d8%aa%d8%a7%d9%8a%d8%b3%d9%88%d9%86-%d9%8a%d8%b3%d8%aa%d8%ac%d9%8a%d8%a8-%d9%84%d8%b7%d9%84%d8%a8-%d8%a7%d9%84%d9%83%d8%a7%d9%85%d9%8a%d8%b1%d9%88%d9%86%d9%8a-%d9%81%d8%b1\/embed\/#?secret=i8yKv3nM0F#?secret=3xU3ET3rXS\" data-secret=\"3xU3ET3rXS\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Khamzat Chimaev wants to make Costa cry<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The matchup between \u201cBorz\u201d and \u201cThe Eraser\u201d was rumored for several months and was the fight the fanbase wanted.
