18-year-old Raul Rosas Jr hasn't even made his UFC debut but is confident he could beat bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling.
Rosas will make history in his fight against Jay Perrin at UFC 282 on Saturday night as he becomes the youngest fighter to compete in the promotion. The record has been held for 16 years by Dan Lauzon, who competed at UFC 64 as an 18-year-old and despite Rosas being the same age, he will be four months younger than Lauzon was when he achieved the feat.
Sterling has reigned as the bantamweight champion since winning the belt against Petr Yan last March in controversial fashion, but 'Funkmaster' has since defended the title against Yan and TJ Dillashaw. Rosas gave a bold prediction when asked about a fight between him and Sterling, as he thinks he would finish the champion.
