Scores another submission win
Rosas defeated Ricky Turcios via submission (rear-naked choke) at 2:22 of Round 2 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Louisville, Kentucky.
ANALYSIS
This fight was several months in the making, as these two were originally scheduled to do battle in Mexico City in late-February before Rosas withdrew due to illness. They finally got it on here, and Rosas emerged victorious after surviving a rear-naked choke attempt from Turcios in Round 1. Raul was always going to have a massive grappling advantage in this fight, and he seemed like a good bet to emerge victorious as long as he didn't make any major mistakes. The UFC continues to take things slowly with Rosas, which is absolutely the correct move considering he won't be 20 years of age until this coming October. Raul improves to 3-1 with the company with the win. He also went on to earn a $50,000 Performance of the Night bonus for his efforts here.

Turcios fight on tap again
Rosas (illness) is scheduled to compete against Ricky Turcios at the UFC Apex's June 8 event, per Damon Martin of MMAFighting.com.
ANALYSIS
Rosas and Turcios were expected to fight at UFC Mexico on Feb. 24. But after that fight was postponed, their bout got pushed back to UFC Vegas 87 a week later before it got canceled altogether. But now that he is ready to go again, Turcios has been scheduled again, hopefully for the last time before they eventually compete for the first time.

No fight Saturday after all
Rosas is no longer expected to fight Ricky Turcios at UFC Vegas 87 on Saturday, MMAFighting.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The two were supposed to fight a week earlier in Mexico City, but Rosas came down with an illness at the last possible minute, forcing the cancellation of the bout just before the walkouts. The UFC announced an immediate re-booking for this week's card at catchweight, but it sounds like the promotion jumped the gun a bit, making the announcement before both fighters had pen to paper. It seems likely this fight still happens down the road, but it won't be this weekend.
