Raul Rosas Jr. becomes the youngest main eventer in UFC history when he headlines Fight Night against veteran Raoni Barcelos at the Meta APEX.
UFC is back at its regular Las Vegas home this weekend, running a stacked 12-fight card at the Meta APEX just days after the promotion’s showcase event at Crypto.com Arena.
Topping the bill is a bantamweight main event that makes history before the first bell even rings — Raul Rosas Jr. becomes the youngest fighter ever to headline a UFC card, another marker on his path toward his stated goal of becoming the promotion’s youngest-ever champion.
Standing in his way is Raoni Barcelos, a 39-year-old Brazilian veteran riding a five-fight win streak of his own, including a decision win over Montel Jackson earlier this year.
Rosas Jr. brings a grappling-heavy game built on elite control time, while Barcelos offers a durable, well-rounded test unlike anything the young prospect has faced inside the Octagon so far.
The card also closes out Season 34 of The Ultimate Fighter, with finals in both the men’s bantamweight and women’s strawweight brackets, alongside a loaded prelims card headlined by a rematch between Montel Jackson and Ricky Simon.
If you’re wondering exactly when the action kicks off and where you can watch it, here’s everything you need to know.
