Biceps Injury Forces Paulo ‘Borrachinha’ Out of UFC Fight Night 128 Bout vs. Uriah Hall

Promising knockout artist Paulo Henrique Costa won’t be able to compete at next month’s UFC Fight Night 128 card due to a biceps injury.

“Borrachinha” announced the news on Instagram. Canal Encarada was the first to report the news. Costa was reportedly scheduled to face Uriah Hall in a middleweight bout, although the contest had not been formally announced by the UFC.

“This is not good news for my fans... I had a serious injury, partial breaking of [biceps] ligament,” Costa wrote. “I know that you are excited to see me again and I am too , but I need some more time to return to show all my potential to you in the cage.
