HE'LL RAUL THE WORLD

RAUL ROSAS Jr has grinded virtually his entire life just to make it to the UFC. Fortunately for him he is only 17 years old.

'El Nino Problema' or 'The Problem Child' is going to be a man-sized headache for any fighter in the bantamweight division after earning a UFC contract.

Rosas Jr, who needed a special license from the Nevada Athletic Commission to compete in Las Vegas, was paired against 25-year-old Mando Gutierrez but was all over his opponent like a (nappy) rash for the full three rounds to win by unanimous decision, with all three judges scoring it 30-27.
