Paddy Pimblett offers to help Paulo Costa with weight cutting

The Brazilian middleweight fighter Costa infamously failed to make weight during his previous fight with the Italian fighter, Marvin Vettori. Hence, the fight was shifted to a light heavyweight category. But ‘The Eraser’ still lost the fight.

Now Costa is currently preparing for his next big UFC fight. And the British MMA fighter Paddy Pimblett has chimed in to help ‘The Eraser’ with his weight cut issues.

He wrote, “Bro July 23? help me to make weight like that.” Interestingly, the Liverpudlian acknowledged Costa’s tweets and offered to help him. Pimblett wrote, “Get over to Liverpool big man, we get you down to 185 in no time chesty.”

‘The Eraser’ is currently on a two-fight skid. He will fight the former middleweight champion, Luke Rockhold, next. Rockhold is also running on a two-fight skid in the UFC. Hence, it is an important fight for both to stay relevant in the competition.
