Paulo Costa has revealed his ambitious plan to compete in both the middleweight and light heavyweight divisions, with aspirations to become a title contender in each weight class. Costa clarified that his current move to light heavyweight is not due to an inability to make middleweight, but rather a strategic decision based on opportunity. He emphasized that fighting at 205 pounds was a planned move and that he simply received a good opportunity to compete at light heavyweight. Costa stated he intends to maintain his presence in both divisions simultaneously rather than permanently moving up. The Brazilian fighter's dual-division strategy represents an unusual approach in modern UFC competition.
