Current physique photos have been released of Azamat Murzakanov and Paulo Costa ahead of their UFC 327 bout this weekend. This marks Costa's second fight at light heavyweight in the UFC, his first being against Marvin Vettori in 2021. Costa's last five fights have all gone to decision, while Murzakanov enters on a six-fight winning streak in the promotion. Notably, Murzakanov's last three victories came by knockout or technical knockout. The contrasting recent finishing rates between the two fighters raises questions about whether this bout will end early or follow Costa's recent pattern of going the distance.
