Former Strikeforce fighter Aaron Rosa will make his UFC light heavyweight debut against the heavy handed brazilian Fabio Maldanado. Rosa made his UFC debut against Joey Beltran in a losing effort, convincing him to drop to his natural weight.
The fight was officially announced by the promotion earlier today via it’s website, meaning both men have put pen to paper on their bout agreements.
Maldonado will be looking to get back to winning ways after losing a 15-minute war to Kyle Kingsbury in June. Prior to that he’d taken out British hopeful James McSweeney in his octagon debut.
As i said earlier this is Rosa's debut in the LHW division so we should see him coming in a bit stronger and faster, and hopefully successful.
