To say Paulo Costa is a ‘big for the middleweight division’ is understating things and then some. As evidenced in a new video the fighter’s shared out of his camp for UFC 253.
The hulking Brazilian fighter is booked to fight middleweight champ, Israel Adesanya on September 26th, in a fight that will headline UFC 253.
If you’ve followed the rise of Costa, you know that he’s one of the most durable, and powerful middleweights in the game today. Costa has talked about winning the middleweight title and then moving up to light-heavyweight.
The video below provides some insights into why Costa’s pretty certain he can compete at 205 pounds.
Adesanya – Costa should be on anyone’s must-see list.
