News Raul Rosas Jr. vs Ricky Turcios officially not happening this weekend

[BoxerMaurits]

By Big Marcel Dorff:

“Little info. I took down the rebooking post for Rosas Jr. vs. Turcios.
The UFC broadcast, Dana himself and the official UFC account on X confirmed the fight was happening next week. According to Turcios he hasn't signed anything (as you can see in his IG stories).

No idea why the UFC thought they could announce it without both sides agreeing to fight next week. Don't know if it is still being worked on but for now I took it down.”








UPDATE:

Fight is off

How sick is this guy that he’s out next weekend too ?

Turcios looks like 12yo in that pic even with the chin beard

also damn he pulled out with 5 min to walk? panic attac like Tom Breese? Because seems pretty fucking stupid if he was sick and then bailed out 5 min before

 

[Neck&Neck]

Oh no

No Turcios just hasnt signed the contract yet, its another case of Dana pressuring them to take it for next week since that card is falling apart.

Kids these days just ain't wanna show up to work they ain't tryna get that paper too coddled fam weak generation

Sounds like a case of the nerves kicked in and he quit right before the fight.

Anything that is serious illness related would have been noticeable prior to 5mins before the fight starting. That’s bullshit and I hope Turcios gets paid for showing up and doing his job.
This whole situation sounds extra sus and reeks of UFC favoritism and bullshit.

Fuck this ugly hypejob anyway.

No idea why the fuck he was getting the CM Punk treatment of having the UFC recruit extra shitty opponents just to pretend the kid is UFC level in the first place.

Now he pulls out 5 MINUTES before his fight?

In front of his mexican fans?
I thought Rosas is CHINese

 

[whocares]

All the stars are aligning. Finally the 300 main event we've been waiting for.

 

[USA!USA!]

Hopefully Ricky gets 2 paydays - not his fault that his opponent bitched out.

Tough business though.

 

[Blanqa Blanqua]

Rosa seems to be fumbling the bag.

 

[neomage2021]

Time to cut Roasas and be done with it.

I don't know what the issue is with Rosas but it did remind me of a question I've had for a while. Ever since the Justine Kish incident they've made, um, emitting bodily fluids in the cage (other than blood of course) grounds for an automatic loss. So let's say a fighter's nervous and they start feeling a little nauseated. Would it be wiser to call off the match than go in and risk getting DQed?

By pulling out 5 minutes before the fight that looks really bad to the UFC. I mean, if you're ok with risking your career options sure pull out.
