Canadian lightweight Olivier Aubin-Mercier (9-2 MMA, 5-2 UFC) will travel to Brazil to take on Leonardo Santos (16-3-1 MMA, 5-0-1 UFC) at June’s UFC 212 event.

UFC officials today announced the contest for the June 3 event, which takes place at Jeunesse Arena in Rio de Janeiro. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass, though the official bout order has yet to be revealed.

Known as “The Quebec Kid,” Aubin-Mercier was a finalist on “The Ultimate Fighter Nations: Canada vs. Australia,” where he suffered a split-decision loss to Chad Laprise. He’s since put together an impressive 5-1 record in the octagon, earning four of those victories by submission, losing only to Carlos Diego Ferreira along the way.

Meanwhile, Santos is the winner of “The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil 2” and has gone unbeaten in six official UFC appearances. Santos claimed the tournament win with a June 2013 submission of William Macario. Santos’ next appearance resulted in a majority draw against Norman Parke, but the Nova Uniao product has since earned four consecutive victories.

The UFC 212 lineup currently includes:

Champ Jose Aldo vs. Interim Champ Max Holloway – to unify featherweight title
