Paulo Costa believes he will be the first mixed martial artist to bank a billion dollars.
Earlier this week, ‘The Eraser’ revealed that he would be staying with the UFC after coming to terms with the promotion on a four-fight deal reportedly worth $1 million per fight. The deal comes months removed from a very public spat between Paulo Costa and UFC president Dana White regarding the unfavorable terms of his previous contract. All signs pointed toward the two parties going their separate ways after White referred to Costa as a “f*cking lunatic” while addressing the dispute between the two.
