ANGELA HILL has told fellow UFC star Paulo Costa to get over the 'dry-humping' he received from Israel Adesanya.

The ‘Last Stylebender’ brutalized the Brazilian to earn a quick second-round finish last week at UFC 253.

And after his win, the UFC Middleweight Champion caused controversy when he celebrated by mocking his arch-rival following the bad blood between them in the build-up to the clash.

The star was widely-criticised for his exploits, with Costa naturally fuming, but female strawweight grappler Hill saw nothing wrong with it.

Speaking at the media day to promote this weekend’s UFC on ESPN: Holm vs Aldana event, ‘Overkill’ said: “That was funny. I mean like yeah be mad about that.

“The dry humping, there wasn’t any penetration. He didn’t actually smack him with anything.

“It was miming, he was doing aggressive miming.”

Hill claimed she would never mimic Adesanya’s actions, but she elaborated on the reasons why she thought he did it.

The 35-year-old said: “He was excited and I  think this fight really got to him.

“Mentally, I think he really had to dig deep into his Zen state of mind and watch a lot of Naruto to really channel that inner ninja in him and beat up the bully.

“Then afterwards he celebrated beating up the bully. I thought it was funny.

“Obviously, it was disrespectful,… but I didn’t think it was out of line considering the build-up and everything. But yeah, I probably wouldn’t have done it.”
