Raul Rosas Jr., the ambitious 18-year-old UFC fighter, has stated his wishes. Looks like he wants to win the Bantamweight, Featherweight, and Lightweight championships.

Rosas Jr. won his debut UFC fight against Perrin via first-round submission and even took home the $50,000 as a performance bonus. The young fighter is quite ambitious with his targets and goals when he said in the post-fight octagon interview that he won’t be done unless he wins the Bantamweight, the Featherweight, and the Lightweight belts.

Some fighters like to steel their resolve by saying it aloud, and Rosas did just that. But he doesn’t just need to talk the talk but also walk the walk. Unless and until he can back up his claims with his performances, no one in the community will take him seriously.
