Even though he still has no fight on the books, Paulo Costa is preparing for battle.
Former Ultimate Fighting Championship middleweight title challenger Costa (15-4) put a losing streak from 2024 behind him by winning a decision over Roman Kopylov in July. Recipient of multiple callouts, while more than willing to also call his own shots on his active social media pages, Costa has yet to get his next name from the promotion.
While waiting, “Borrachinha” has already begun preparing for his return to the Octagon with physical trainer Andre Benkei.
