The Brazilian beat former middleweight champion Rockhold on Saturday
Paulo Costa reacted to a "very weird moment" in his fight against Luke Rockhold at UFC 278, with the former middleweight champion rubbing blood on the Brazilian in their bout in Salt Lake City on Saturday.
As the two men grappled on the octagon floor at the Vivint Arena, Rockhold, who was on top of Costa, smeared his own blood on the mouth and face of the 'The Eraser' with seconds to spare.
Though the bout was what UFC president Dana White described as a "dog fight" later, Costa cruised to a 30-27 unanimous decision win over the one-time 185lb division ruler.
Online, fans and fighters reacted to the "weirdest fight I've ever seen" on social media with Terrance McKinney saying that Rockhold "just did some psycho rockstar sh*t".
"Why was he just rubbing blood all over him, wtf," asked Ben Askren. "Never seen that before," he added.
Backstage at the post-event press conference, Costa continued the theme by calling the scene a "very weird moment".
