Paulo Costa looks as if he was sculpted out of marble by Greek artisans. According to his undefeated record replete with KOs, it's safe to say that he hits as if this was true.

Coming off of an epic three round middleweight war with Yoel Romero, Costa's ability to not only deliver but also receive massive shots that would fold many men in half was on full display. Finishing every fight he has had as a professional, (besides the ever durable Romero), Costa is one the most exciting fighters on today's roster.

His destructive power is akin to many heavyweights, consistently driving foes backwards in an attempt to escape his immense pressure. Known for dominating his opponents with weighty strikes from many different angles, there's not yet a formula on how to deal with this Brazilian badass.
