Fighter Rankings
Here are the top 5 rankings from both Paulo Costa and Michael Bisping:
| Rank | Paulo Costa | Michael Bisping |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Ian Garry | Ian Garry |
| 2 | Paulo Costa | Colby Covington |
| 3 | Colby Covington | Belal Muhammad |
| 4 | Belal Muhammad | Khamzat Chimaev |
| 5 | Khamzat Chimaev | Juliana Pena |
Analysis
The top 5 lists look similar, with the exception that Paulo received higher marks on his own tweet.
When normalized, Paulo Costa's replies indicated more disdain for Ian Garry than in Bisping's replies, even though Garry received top marks in both.
Bisping's replies showed more animosity towards fighters like Conor McGregor, Jon Jones, and Juliana Pena than Paulo's replies.
In the world of UFC, emotions run high, and love and hate can sometimes mean the same thing: good ratings.
However, one exception seems to be Colby Covington, who seems to have annoyed the fans with his last performance a lot. So much that they don't even care to see him fight.
