In an exclusive interview with the blog, Costa says that favoritism only tells before the competition: “Favoritism ends when we took the stage (…) I competed against very good athletes, but I knew it would come to be champion.”
“I came with as little flaws as possible (…) there are always points to improve, but I will arrive at Olympia in my 100%,” he concludes.
