The Ultimate Fighting Championship debut of Jessie Rosas is set.
Jessie, the older brother of UFC bantamweight Raul Rosas Jr., has signed with the promotion and is expected to make his Octagon debut on Aug. 8 at UFC Fight Night 284. The Fight Night event is scheduled to take place at Meta Apex in Las Vegas.
Jessie (8-1) joins the UFC following an impressive run on the regional circuit that included appearances for UWC, Urijah Faber’s A1 Combat, Fury FC and 559 Fights. The 23-year-old bantamweight has six finishes across his eight professional victories, with two wins coming by knockout and four by submission.
Jessie is two years older than Raul, who made his first appearance in the UFC at just 18. He will face Miles Johns (15-5 MMA, 6-5 UFC), a veteran fighter on a three-fight losing streak, in his promotional debut.
Meanwhile, Raul is on a stellar run, recording five straight victories since suffering his first-ever pro loss. The 21-year-old is coming off a decision victory over Rob Font.
