Rising Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) heavyweight contender Raul Rosas Jr. is set to make his official Real American Freestyle (RAF) debut when the 22-year-old takes on UFC veteran Clay Guida at the top of RAF 15 on November 28th in Chicago, Illinois as NOWinos on FOX Nation.
The RAF announced the main rule via social media on Friday evening (shown below).
Rosas, currently ranked No. 8 in the UFC’s talent-rich bantamweight division, is coming off a wild main event win at UFC Vegas 121 after opponent Raoni Barcelos passed out violently in the fifth round ( watch HERE). Rosas was low on the scorecards entering the final frame, but outplayed Barcelo and performed well overall in his first UFC main event. Rosas is one of the most talented wrestlers at 135 pounds, but he has never stepped on the RAF mat to prove himself.
Guida, who will turn 45 this December, has fallen on hard times. After ending his storied UFC career on a three-fight losing streak, “The Carpenter” took his talents to the RAF in 2025. Unfortunately, Guida has lost his first three bouts under the RAF banner, including a recent decision loss to Frankie Edgar. He’ll have his work cut out for him against Rosas next month.
