Paulo Costa has stated his intention to compete in both the light heavyweight and middleweight divisions. Costa emphasized that he plans not just to fight in both weight classes but to be a title contender in each division. He clarified that his participation in light heavyweight is not because he cannot make middleweight, but rather it is a strategic decision. Costa explained he received a good opportunity to compete at 93 kg (205 lbs) and everything is planned accordingly. The Brazilian fighter appears confident in his ability to compete at the highest level in both divisions simultaneously.
