His fighting style was very aggressive and caught the attention of fans. Upon joining the UFC, he had a quick and meteoric rise in the promotion, stopping every fighter he faced in his first four fights. This included wins over big names – Johny Hendricks and Uriah Hall.

He then faced off against veteran Yoel ‘Soldier of God’ Romero, who he defeated after three close rounds via a unanimous decision. This big win earned him the title shot against the champion, Israel Adesanya. This fight received a lot of hype but unfortunately didn’t go as planned for ‘The Eraser’.

Costa lost the fight in the second round after being finished via punches. From here, his career went sideways as he could not capitalize on his chance to win the title. He believed that the weight cut had got to him and was the primary reason for his loss.

So he jumped to light heavyweight to fight his next opponent, Marvin Vettori. Unfortunately, he couldn’t come out on top again after losing via unanimous decision at the end of five rounds. Costa will now look to get revenge as he takes on the likes of Luke Rockhold at UFC 277.
