Falls in first fight of new deal
Rosa lost to T.J. Brown via unanimous decision (28-29, 28-29, 28-29) at UFC on ESPN 32 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Accepting this fight on extremely short notice after Gabriel Benitez (undisclosed) was forced to withdraw, Rosa proved to be his typical durable self, but was unable to generate enough offense to earn the decision. He allowed Brown to connect on 6-of-8 takedown attempts, which torpedoed his chances of emerging with the victory. A member of the UFC roster for more than seven years now, Rosa falls to 5-7 with the company. Oddly enough, the UFC recently handed the Massachusetts native a new four-fight contract, so Rosa isn't going anywhere despite his mediocre record with the company.

Re-ups with UFC, joins Vegas 46 card
Rosa (toe) signed a new four-fight deal with the UFC on Wednesday and is set to return to the Octagon on Saturday at UFC Vegas 46, stepping in as a short-notice replacement for Gabriel Benitez (undisclosed) while taking on T.J. Brown in a lightweight bout, Alexander K. Lee of MMAFighting.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The Benitez-Brown matchup was initially scheduled as a featherweight bout, but Brown (15-8-0) and Rosa (14-6-0) will have their fight contested at 155 pounds. The short-notice addition to the card isn't an ideal setup for Rosa, who went 1-2 over three fights in 2021 before his previous UFC contract expired. Rosa suffered a toe injury in his most recent bout in October, but he looks to be back to full health now.
