Charles Rosa ‘impressed’ by Bryce Mitchell but plans to ‘take his arm off’ and send him home in a camo sling

A career threatening neck injury put Charles Rosa on the shelf for over two years but after making his return to the UFC this past October, he had no intention of waiting any longer to fight again.

Even in the middle of a global pandemic, the 33-year-old Boston native was more than happy to inform the UFC that he was staying ready to fight, which probably helped his cause when the promotion was looking to fill their first card back on May 9.

Rosa was already scheduled to fight in May and he refused to allow his training camp to skip a beat even with the COVID-19 outbreak happening all around him.
