Costa wants to fight Belfort by boxing rules

Former UFC middleweight contender Paulo Costa after unsuccessful negotiations with the promotion about a new contract, he is considering the option of moving to boxing.

"I like boxing. There are many names there, but I don't have anyone in mind yet. Guys from MMA compete in boxing. He's a little old, but still good. There are many more guys. Of course, Vitor drinks the “secret juice”.

There is much less work in boxing. In MMA, I train all day, my whole body hurts - a lot of wrestling and jiu-jitsu. Boxing is a difficult sport, but there is more money and less work. Why not?”, — quotes the words of Costa MMA Mania.
