Costa-Philippou The UFC added another big middleweight fight to its upcoming UFC on FX 8 card, which takes place May 18 in Brazil. According to MMAFighting.com, middleweight contenders Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza and Costa Philippou will meet in a main card bout. Both fighters are currently ranked in the top 10 of the MMA Fighter Rankings and another win would help each move that much closer to a title shot. This should be a very competitive fight but one would have to imagine “Jacare” enters as the favorite while Philippou will be a small dog.
