Former UFC middleweight contender Paulo Costa refused to sign a new agreement with a promotion for six fights. Under the current contract, the Brazilian has one fight left.

“One fight and I am free from the contract with the UFC. I was offered a contract for six fights. I am not interested in agreements for several fights,” Costa wrote on Twitter.

Recall that his next performance Costa will hold against Robert Whittaker. The fight will take place on February 12 at UFC 284 in Perth, Australia.
