No idea who Terrence Mitchell’s manager is but they’re doing him no favors. He’s clearly there to be a rebound and building block for prospects.

Nah dude. Rosa is shot. His confidence and optimism. Gone. You know the old adage

“Better a plum late than an apple early “

They harvested him too soon.
 
Favorable matchup for Rosas since Mitchell will play into a grappling heavy fight. Decent match up should be fun
 
Rosas has a high ceiling and will probably hit some beautiful takedowns with some slick scrambles but fighting scared is a bad sign and it'll be hard to work that habit out while in the UFC. I was super impressed with the wrestling ability but when somebody feints and your only reaction is to shoot that's going to gas you out every damn time against people who can wrestle even a little bit. His last fight reminded me of when Bader panic shot against Rumble except it was on repeat and Rosas just got more and more tired.
 
I wonder if Dana will take Rosas Jr's hat wearing privilege away for his walkout after he lost his last fight.

Mitchell is much worse than his record seems to indicate. Rosas getting another gift here, he had better win or all hype is done.

Rosas has a high ceiling? Based on what, exactly? Beyond Dana White hyping him up?

Everyone has a high ceiling when all you know about them is... well, not much, really.

The fact that he's super young is virtually meaningless to me.

It will be interesting to see if rosas paces himself this time since he blew his wad in his last fight; and if he does pace himself, will he even be the dangerous fighter that he was? most of his wins came from his just overwhelming his opponents with pace and wrestling in round one, but if he takes that high pace away, what will he have? I'm interested in watching because I think he already is a very solid grappler and has years to build on that skillset.

I don't know much about Terrence mitchell, but isn't he a collegiate wrestler? He is a big 135lber, too, but like rosas he seems to have questionable cardio.

Who is the lower level fighter you'd want Mitchell to face?

I mean, this guy is a literal teenage hype prospect.

This is Hype Child vs Alaska in a battle to see which is the lower bar.

Jake Paul-level stuff where you don't know whether the Disney star is better than the ex-MMA fighter who can't box.
 
If Mitchell can stand up with Cameron for 2 minute then he can beat up Rauls non striking ahh
 
Rosas isnt very good . He was trying to just hold on for dear life in his last fight. He had no idea what was happening. He’s done
