Israel Adesanya vs Paulo Costa 2 in the Works for Early 2026

A rematch between Adesanya (ex-champion) and Costa (ex-challenger) is in the works for UFC Paramount, the promotion’s new broadcast era launching in early 2026. Their first clash (title fight) at UFC 253 in 2020 saw Adesanya (24-5) win by second-round TKO. Both ex-middleweights now aim for redemption as the UFC’s Paramount deal promises bigger global coverage and prime-time events.
