"It will be a masterclass" - Paulo Costa claims that he is ready and prepared to take on Luke Rockhold at UFC 278

Paulo Costa will clash against former middleweight champion Luke Rockhold in the co-main event of UFC 278.

The Brazilian was last seen in the octagon against Marvin Vettori back in October 2021. Costa struggled to make weight for the fight owing to a bicep tear leading up to the fight. 'The Eraser' weighed in at 204.05 pounds and forfeited 20% of his purse.

Costa is coming into the fight at UFC 278 looking to turn things around after a two-fight losing streak. The Brazilian certainly seems confident in his training for UFC 278.

He looks to be in great shape, and claimed that he will put on a masterclass against Rockhold:

His opponent Luke Rockhold is set to return to fighting after a three-year hiatus this weekend. He was last seen in the octagon against Jan Blachowicz at UFC 239.
