We have you covered for all of tonight’s UFC 306 results, including the men’s bantamweight bout between Raul Rosas Jr. vs. Aori Qileng.
Rosas Jr. (10-1 MMA) will be returning to action for the first time since scoring a second-round submission victory over Ricky Turcios this past June at UFC Louisville. ‘El Nino Problema’ has gone 3-1 since joining the UFC ranks, earning stoppage wins over Jay Perrin and Terrence Mitchell during that stretch.
Meanwhile, Aori Qileng (25-12 MMA) was last seen inside of the Octagon at February’s UFC Vegas 86 event, where his bout with Daniel Marcos ended in a no-contest due to an accidental groin strike. Prior to that unfortunate result, the ‘Mongolian Murderer’ was coming off a unanimous decision victory over Johnny Munoz Jr.
