Follow-up fight scheduled
Coria will take on Luis Gurule in a flyweight matchup at UFC Houston on February 21, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Coria impressed in his UFC debut, defeating Alessandro Costa via third-round TKO back in September. He was excellent defensively in that bout, limiting Costa to just 12 significant strikes. Coria will now enter with height and reach advantages against Gurule, who will likely be fighting for his roster spot after dropping back-to-back fights in 2025.

Shines in late-notice debut
Coria defeated Alessandro Costa via TKO (punches) at 0:47 of Round 3 at UFC Noche on Saturday in San Antonio.
ANALYSIS
A long-time veteran of both the Fury and LFA promotions, Coria stepped in here for Edgar Chairez and put forth a brilliant performance. Keeping his opponent off balance the entire fight, Coria attempted 131 total strikes compared to just 59 from Costa. When all was said and done, he led that category by a 77-14 count. He also landed both of his takedown attempts. Nothing in Coria's background suggests a prolonged winning streak is forthcoming, but he couldn't have looked much better in his debut here.
