Paulo Costa has announced plans to compete in both the middleweight and light heavyweight divisions simultaneously. The Brazilian stated he intends to be a title contender in each weight class. Costa clarified that his move to light heavyweight is not because he cannot make middleweight anymore, but rather part of a deliberate strategy. He explained that he simply received a good opportunity to compete at 205 pounds. Costa emphasized that his decision to fight at light heavyweight is entirely planned and not driven by weight-cutting difficulties.
