UFC on ESPN 64 results: 20-year-old Raul Rosas Jr. outworks Vince Morales for fifth UFC win
Raul Rosas Jr. continued to add valuable wins and experience to his resume and emerged with his hand raised against Vince Morales at UFC on ESPN 64.
The 20-year-old Rosas (11-1 MMA, 5-1 UFC) once again displayed a strong grappling presence on Saturday at Arena CDMX in Mexico City. He outworked Morales (11-10 MMA, 3-8 UFC) over the course of three rounds to claim a unanimous decision with three 29-28 scorecards.

The opening round was largely grappling-heavy in the favor of Rosas, who managed to get Morales to the mat and advance to dominant positions. Morales got a reversal late, but couldn’t do anything with it.
The pair stood for a few minutes to start Round 2, but then Rosas secured another takedown and took the back. Despite failing to get the finish, he kept Morales on the defensive for the remainder of the round.
Rosas shot for a takedown early in Round 3, and Morales stuffed it and countered with a series of submission attempts that nearly sealed the deal. Rosas escaped and ended on top, however, where he rode out the round to close the fight.
“Dana (White), thank you for allowing me for coming in here tonight to redeem myself in front of my Mexico people. I know it wasn’t my best performance, but I’m 20 years old and I’m getting experience. … You’ll see me evolve through the years, baby.”
