Seeking fifth straight win
Rosas will take on Rob Font in a bantamweight bout at Noche UFC in San Antonio on September 13, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
Rosas topped Vince Morales via unanimous decision in late March to earn his fourth straight win in the UFC. He'll go for five in a row against a more experienced fighter in Font. Font is also on something of a winning streak, having won his last two bouts. Rosas, however, at age 20, is significantly younger than his 38-year-old opponent, and appears to really be hitting his stride in the UFC.

Secures fourth straight win
Rosas defeated Vince Morales via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Mexico City.
ANALYSIS
It was a typical Rosas performance on multiple fronts. His striking continues to improve, but his success is entirely reliant on his grappling game. Rosas landed 4-of-8 takedowns for 9:38 worth of control time, but his positioning on the ground remains a work in progress, and that allowed Morales to clamp on a pair of deep submission attempts. Rosas survived, but there were some hairy moments on the way to the victory. The winner of four fights in a row and five of his six in the UFC, Rosas won't turn 21 years of age until October. All that matters is that he remains healthy and continues to get reps inside the Octagon.

Taking on Morales
Rosas will take on Vince Morales in a bantamweight bout at UFC Mexico on March 29, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Rosas will be looking to build off what's been a very impressive start to his UFC career. He's currently sitting at 4-1 in the promotion, winning his last three bouts. Even more impressive is the fact that he's only 20, and made his UFC debut when he was 18. His opponent Morales, meanwhile, has struggled recently, losing two straight to drop his UFC record to 3-7.

Grinds way to UFC 306 victory
Rosas defeated Aori Qileng via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28) at UFC 306 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
It was a thoroughly mediocre performance from Rosas as a ridiculous -1000 favorite. Yes, he won this fight easily, but that was because he landed three takedowns and 7:32 worth of control time. He accomplished little on the feet and had zero desire to take any risks on the mat knowing full well Qileng had zero chance of hanging with him there. Rosas, who won't turn 20 years of age until early-October, remains the youngest fighter on the UFC roster. He improves to 4-1 with the company. Rosas is so young that the only things that matter at this point is that he stays healthy and gets increased reps in the Octagon, but it would have been nice to see him seek the finish a bit more against a middling opponent like Qileng.
