Not Just A Fight For Paulo Costa, It's Personal
Costa is currently 12-0, with his two most recent wins over Johnny Hendricks and Urijah Hall. He is without question one of the brightest young stars in the UFC’s middleweight division, and fighting an opponent as talented as Romero is an incredible test.
That’s why Costa believes he can send a major message with a finish at Honda Center.
“After this fight I just need to say to everyone in the division that I am the king of the division,” Costa said. “Nobody can beat me and I will be the next champion. For sure. I have no doubt about this.”
