Paulo Costa has stated he intends to fight in both the middleweight and light heavyweight divisions simultaneously. The Brazilian contends he doesn't just want to compete in both weight classes, but aims to be a title contender at each level. Costa clarified that his move to light heavyweight is not because he cannot make middleweight, but rather part of a planned strategy. He emphasized that he simply received a good opportunity to compete at 205 pounds and took it. Costa explained that his dual-division approach is intentional and calculated, suggesting he sees viable paths to championships in both weight classes.
