Raul Rosas Jr. will make his Real American Freestyle wrestling debut against Clay Guida at RAF 15 at the NOW Arena in Chicago on Saturday 28 November.

It is a wrestling match, not an MMA fight. Rosas, 22, is on six straight wins in the UFC bantamweight division, including his finish of Raoni Barcelos at UFC Vegas 121. He was the youngest fighter ever signed by the UFC and the youngest ever to win a UFC fight.

Guida, 44, retired from MMA in 2024 after 37 UFC appearances and is 0-3 in RAF, with losses to Frankie Edgar, Keelon Jimison and Cayden Henschel. He was inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame's Fight Wing in 2019 for his fight with Diego Sanchez.

It will be Rosas's fifth booking in combat sports this year. Anthony Pettis against Donald Cerrone is also on the RAF 15 card.
