As the unpredictable UFC event, UFC 282, draws closer, the fans have their eyes set on one particular fight. When Raul Rosas Jr. enters the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Dec. 10, he will take the first step toward his desired goal of becoming the youngest UFC champion. Notably, the 18-year-old fighter will make his promotional debut against Jay Perrin.
