Paulo Thiago needed 10 fights to get the biggest chance of his MMA career. With no losses in the career and a great job in Jungle Fight, Paulo will do his first international fight at UFC, against one of the best names of the welterweight division. Coming from a big knockout against Yoshiyuki Yoshida, Josh Koscheck will face the newcomer at UFC 95, which takes place at London at February 21^st.

“We’re investing in his career for two years. Jungle Fight gave us a big chance and now we put him into UFC. Rani (Yahya) may only be back in March (at WEC), so the whole team is focused on his preparation. If he wins, maybe we’ll get the submission of the night bonuses”, celebrates Ataíde Junior, leader of the Constrictor Team.
