WILMINGTON, Mass. – If you were surprised by the news, Randy Costa wasn’t. The writing was on the wall. His UFC tenure is over, at least for now.
“Dude, it was no secret,” Costa told MMA Junkie after he commentated Combat FC 2 at Shriners Auditorium. “It was going to happen. I’m on a three-fight skid.”
Costa, 28, was recently released from the UFC after a quick submission loss Oct. 1 to Guido Cannetti. For the first time in three-and-a-half years, Costa (6-4) is once again a free agent. He exits the UFC with a 2-4 promotional record with knockout wins over Journey Newson and Boston Salmon.
