Melquizael Costa will make his second Octagon appearance in a little more than a month when he squares off against Christian Rodriguez at UFC Mexico City on March 29.
Ag.Fight was first to report the featherweight booking. UFC on ESPN 64 takes place at Arena CDMX in Mexico City and is headlined by a flyweight clash between Brandon Moreno and Steve Erceg.
Costa is coming off a first-round submission victory against Andre Fili at UFC Seattle this past Saturday. The 28-year-old Brazilian has won three of his last four Octagon appearances after falling to Thiago Moises in his promotional debut.
Rodriguez, meanwhile, has won five of his last six in UFC competition. The Roufusport representative last appeared at UFC Fight Night 249, where he removed Austin Bashi from the ranks of the unbeaten in a unanimous decision triumph.
