A pivotal middleweight clash is expected to headline the UFC’s long-awaited return to The Magic City.
Former title challenger Yoel Romero meets Paulo Costa in the main event of UFC on EPSN 3, which takes place April 27 at AmericanAirlines Arena in Miami. Brazilian outlet Combate reported the news Tuesday afternoon — just hours after reporting that the promotion was returning to Miami. UFC officials have not yet confirmed the pairing.
Romero and Costa were first expected to meet at November’s UFC 230, but “The Soldier of God” was unable to make the date due to an injury.
