Raul Rosas Jr.
At 17, Rosas Jr. became the youngest fighter to join the UFC, and now at 19, he's still the youngest. He's from Mexico and fights in MMA with a record of winning 7 out of 8 fights, including 1 by knockout and 5 by submission. He had a strong start last year, winning a fight quickly and talking about becoming a champion. But this April, he lost to an underdog, Christian Rodriguez, which cooled off all the excitement around him. Despite having a chance to win early on, Rodriguez managed to come back and win the match. Rosas is young, at 5’9” tall with a reach of 67 inches, and this loss might just be a learning step for him.
Ricky Turcios
Ricky Turcios became a UFC fighter by winning The Ultimate Fighter season 29, beating Brady Hiestand in a very close fight. Since then, he's had one win and one loss in the UFC, most recently winning against Kevin Natividad. This weekend, he's going to fight Raul Rosas Jr. in Mexico City. Ricky has a record of 12 wins and 3 draws. He first tried to join the UFC in 2017 on the Contender Series but lost to Boston Salmon. After that, he had a few more fights, winning two and losing one, before joining The Ultimate Fighter. There, he won against Dan Argueta, Liudvuk Sholinian, and Brady Hiestand to become the Ultimate Fighter champion.
Expert Betting Tips
Raul Rojas Jr. is going to fight someone much older than him. In his last fight, Rojas Jr. impressed everyone by winning quickly in the first round because he's very skilled and keeps getting better. He's excited to win again, especially in front of people from his hometown. His opponent, Turcios, will try to fight by keeping his distance and using kicks, but since he can't really hurt Rojas Jr., Rojas will likely just ignore those kicks, take Turcios down, and control the fight. This strategy should help Rojas Jr. win according to the judges.
