Paulo Costa has announced his intention to compete in both the middleweight and light heavyweight divisions simultaneously. The Brazilian fighter stated his goal is not merely to fight in both weight classes, but to be a title contender in each division. Costa emphasized that his current participation in light heavyweight is not because he cannot make middleweight anymore. He explained that competing at 93 kg (light heavyweight) was a strategic decision based on receiving a good opportunity, rather than out of necessity. Costa clarified that everything is planned and his move up in weight is part of a calculated career strategy.
