Alessandro Costa feels he’s among the top flyweights in the world, and he thinks it’s time to prove that to the UFC. After stopping Kevin Borjas to win a $50,000 Performance of the Night bonus at UFC 301 , Costa (14-4 MMA, 2-2 UFC) would like to get a step up in competition. After all, he saw his former rival Steve Erceg, whom Costa lost to in December in a close bout he took on 10 days notice, give a tough outing to the champion Alexandre Pantoja that same night in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Costa is confident he’s one of the world’s best and would like to prove that, ideally in August or late summer
