Raul Rosas Jr. will officially become the youngest fighter in promotion history when he makes his debut against Jay Perrin at UFC 282.
Iridium Sports Agency, which represents Rosas Jr., announced the bantamweight booking via social media on Wednesday. UFC 282 takes place on Dec. 10 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and is headlined by a light heavyweight title rematch between Jiri Prochazka and Glover Teixeira.
