Paulo Costa’s Girlfriend Tamara Alves: All We Know about the UFC Star’s Partner

Most in the UFC community are fans of the noted UFC middleweight, Paulo Costa, and his witty nature. The Brazilian puts out hilarious memes through his ‘X’ account, which often has the fans flooding the comments section with laughing emojis. The 33-year-old also posts several updates about his life and UFC career on his ‘X’ profile. But, even after boasting a superb 14-3 record in his pro-MMA career, his recent run in the UFC is far from a satisfying one. Costa currently stands at 1-3 from his last three fights in the promotion as he gears up for the battle against Sean Strickland at UFC 302.

Still, his popularity among the UFC community appears to be growing. Recently, Costa posted an ‘X’ update with the noted #11 ranked UFC flyweight, Tracy Cortez, that took the community by storm. A lot of them speculated that the two were heading into a relationship. However, another chunk of fans were well aware of Costa already being in a relationship. Thus, they were rather startled to view the post. Most of them were trapped in speculation about whether Costa was about to begin a new relationship or not. So, let’s dive in to learn some more about this confusing situation involving ‘The Eraser’, Tracy Cortez, and Costa’s girlfriend.

Who is Paulo Costa’s girlfriend Tamara Alves?

Most UFC fans may probably only know about Paulo Costa’s girlfriend from his online profiles. The 32-year-old has posted a number of tweets along with his girlfriend, Tamara Alvez, to date. His Instagram account also adorns several posts with Alvarez.

Well, talking about Tamara Alvez’s profession, she is the founder of the ‘Mundo Fit’ wellness retail business. It’s a vitamin supplement store that deals in everything from whey protein to microvitamins. The Mundo Fit app already has 10,000 Instagram followers, confirming the shop’s success. The company’s mission is to create natural supplements that assist people in living healthier lives.

Like her boyfriend, Alvez is also a thorough fitness enthusiast. However, she doesn’t like giving out much about her early life or roots, and hence we lack any such information. But her Instagram bio reveals that she has civil engineering skills as well. However, there are several reports stating that she also takes an interest in and plays a major part in Costa’s UFC career.

Is Paulo Costa’s girlfriend also his manager?

Well, looking at the available reports from noted sources, an affirmation would be the correct answer to this question. A number of fans may have noticed Alvez among the audience whenever her boyfriend takes the cage. Although most fans might think that she visits the UFC events to support ‘Borrachinha’, the truth is that she also has a few roles to play apart from supporting Costa.

There are reports where Costa himself has revealed the benefits of having his girlfriend as his manager. In one of his 2022 interviews, Costa took a hilarious approach to answering a question related to having Alvez as his manager. He used his wits to work out the fact that he had a huge advantage over other fighters since he could “kiss the manager”. Well, after looking at Costa’s previous words, a large chunk of fans won’t have any more questions about who actually manages his UFC affairs.

Unfortunately, Paulo Costa had to opt out of UFC 294 owing to an injury that required urgent surgery. As disappointing as that might have been for fans, the Brazilian even lost a few months back when he finally made his return at UFC 298. Further, the UFC community strongly stands with the charismatic fighter, and hopefully, in a matter of few days, he can register his first win in over two years at UFC 302.

Did Paulo Costa date Tracy Cortez?

As already mentioned, it was an ‘X’ update from Costa that started all these speculations. But a large chunk of the UFC fans knew that Cortez was in a relationship with the noted UFC featherweight, Brian Ortega. The two reportedly began dating in 2020, and since then, they have supported each other pretty well. It’s quite understandable why the fans were startled after viewing this update from ‘Borrachinha’.

However, a number of headlines in early 2023 revealed that things may not be all right between the couple. The biggest indicator came from Cortez when she deleted all of Ortega’s snaps from her Instagram profile. Following this, Ortega posted an update on Twitter (now X), showcasing his pride about “throwing it away”.

Although Ortega never mentioned Cortez in his tweet, his words still became enough for the fans to realize who he was talking about. Cortez also replied to Ortega without mentioning him with an update on her own Twitter account.

Moreover, Costa’s update on ‘X’ which showcased him with Cortez in a gleeful mood, made several fans think that Cortez had ended everything with his former boyfriend, Ortega. The comments section of Costa’s post also revealed that a lot of fans viewed this as the initiation of their relationship.

However, ‘The Eraser’ caption clarified that he and Cortez were “just friends”. Still, nobody can really stop the fans from speculating. But if Costa really is into something like this, it might get troublesome for him as well, since most in the UFC community believe that he is already in a relationship.
