Costa initially trained under former UFC lightweight champion Sean Sherk before going on to compete for CFFC and CES MMA. In 2018, he made his professional debut with a submission win over Kristian Lopez at Combat Zone 62. The victory earned him a contract with the UFC after impressing their staff during Dana White’s Tuesday Night Contender Series event that year.

His most recent outing saw him get back to winning ways when he handed Journey Newson his first defeat by way of unanimous decision during Fight night 177 earlier this month November 2020 . This fight also earned him “Performance Of The Night” honors from Dana White & Co., marking it as one of Costa’s best performances ever since joining UFC roster few years back .
