JERSEY CITY, N.J. – It’s not often Paulo Costa gets a second fight week in four months, as is the case currently in the days leading up to UFC 302.
For the second straight camp booking, there were no fight-damning issues. Costa (14-3 MMA, 6-3 UFC) strolled into his pre-fight news conference fashionable, and fashionably late.
A giant jug of secret juice was in his hand, a yellow variation with chunks of some unknown fruit floating in it. “STRONG & JACKED” was labeled in bold sharpie marker on the side of the vessel.
