SALT LAKE CITY – UFC 278 co-main event competitors Paulo Costa and Luke Rockhold directly relayed their intentions for one another at the pre-fight press conference. For Rockhold (16-5 MMA, 6-4 UFC), the pay-per-view event at Vivint Arena marks his first fight since UFC 239 in 2019. Just ahead of his return three years in the making, his opponent Costa (13-2 MMA, 5-2 UFC) vowed to send him away for good to put an exclamation point on their expletive-filled exchanges at Thursday’s pre-fight news conference.
