Six of the seven billed fights for the
Ultimate Fighting Championship
show on Mexican Independence Day
have one competitor repping Mexico.

Iridium Sports Agency, the management team of Raul Rosas
Jr.
(9-1), announced
on Friday that Rosas would be squaring off against Qileng Aori
(25-11, 1 NC) at UFC
306
. The Sept. 14 event, also titled “Noche UFC,” will take
place inside of The Sphere in Las Vegas as part of a 10-bout
attraction. The bantamweight affair has since been confirmed by
other
outlets
.

“El Nino Problema” burst onto the scene after picking up a contract
on Dana White’s Contender Series by becoming the
youngest UFC fighter to pick up a win. Currently 19 years of age,
Rosas Jr. suffered his first pro loss in April 2023 against

Christian Rodriguez
. He bounced back with a first-round
knockout of Terrence
Mitchell
, and most recently tapped Ricky
Turcios
in June.

With a .500 record in the Octagon, Aori’s last outing in the cage
went poorly when he was bludgeoned by Daniel
Marcos
and then punted repeatedly in the groin to result in a
no contest. Before that rough going, he had won three of four,
taking decisions over Johnny
Munoz Jr.
and Jay Perrin
while laying waste to Cameron
Else
. Along the way, Aiemann
Zahabi
dispatched “The Mongolian Murderer” in 64 seconds.

UFC 306, better known as “Noche UFC,” will go down at the Las Vegas
venue of The Sphere on Sept. 14. No headliner has been announced,
but the promotion stated that there would be exactly 10 fights held
on that night. It has been rumored that Alexa
Grasso
will defend her flyweight throne against Valentina
Shevchenko
on the card, while the main attraction has been
suggested to be Sean
O’Malley
vs. Merab
Dvalishvili
for bantamweight gold.
