"The impossible happened, my God in heaven" - Fans relieved after Paulo Costa successfully makes weight for Robert Whittaker fight

Fans are relieved after Paulo Costa successfully made weight for his middleweight clash against Robert Whittaker.

The Brazilian hasn't had the best of luck lately. He was forced to withdraw from his previously scheduled bout against Khamzat Chimaev due to a staph infection. Last month, he revealed that he had yet to sign on to fight the former middleweight champion at UFC 298, resulting in fans being skeptical about whether he would show up.

Costa put all that to rest as he agreed to the fight, attended the press conference, and now made weight to make his bout official for tomorrow night. Fans took to Costa's Instagram and shared their reactions to the video of him making weight. They wrote:

"The impossible happened, my God in heaven!"

"Is this AI generated or what I still can’t believe it"

"Still don’t believe he’s fighting until Buffers called out the results"

"Paulo by head kick KO. Sorry, Reaper fans."

"I believe in miracles [music emoji] you sexy thang"

"Holy f**k he did it"
