After several weeks on the road, the UFC returned to the META Apex on Saturday, with UFC Vegas 121 headlined by bantamweights Raul Rosas Jr. and Raoni Barcelos.
Riding a five-fight win streak, Rosas was headlining for the first time in the UFC. So too was Barcelos, who took the long road to headlining in the promotion, getting his first main event sixteen fights into his UFC career. Barcelos had derailed hot prospect Payton Talbott last year, and was looking to do the same against Rosas.
Also on the card, the two finales from The Ultimate Fighter 34, at strawweight and bantamweight.
