Raul Rosas Jr on fighting a ranked opponent
In a recent interview with MMA Junkie, Raul Rosas Jr expresses his urge to fight someone from the top 15.
“The thing about me is that I like challenges,” Rosas said, as quoted by mmajunkie.usatoday.com. “I want a challenge. I want to test myself, and now I feel very comfortable being in the cage, and I keep getting more comfortable every time I step in there.
I feel comfortable fighting a top-15 opponent. Personally, I know I’m ready. But even if I’m not ready, I’ll figure out a way to be ready for that date and opponent. If I’m ready, which I think I am, I can still get even more ready, so I can do more than just win, but actually finish and impress everyone, but more importantly the UFC so they can keep giving me fights toward the belt.
That’s why I asked for somebody ranked. Either way, if I don’t get someone in the rankings, I want somebody that gets me a ranked opponent”.
