"I just let ufc knows if Derek Lewis gets out his fight for some reason I will step in at White House as heavyweight. No bullshit, ain't lying."
"Right now, I think practically all the fans would like to see how I, who was perhaps the biggest middleweight in history, would fare against Hokit in the Heavyweight division without cutting any weight at the White House."
"Costa has since expressed his disappointment with the bonus snub and wants a chance to earn a bonus against Hokit."
"Hokit (9-0) also expressed interest in fighting Costa (16-4), also calling for the BMF title to be put on the line."
Paulo Costa has expressed readiness to step in and fight Josh Hokit at heavyweight if Derrick Lewis is unable to compete on June 14. Costa believes he can weigh in heavier than Hokit without cutting weight. He also seeks an opportunity to earn a bonus after feeling snubbed for his previous fight against Azamat Murzakanov. Hokit, who recently won against Curtis Blaydes, has shown interest in facing Costa and suggested that the BMF title could be on the line.
