Prediction, pick for Rob Font vs. Raul Rosas Jr. at UFC 326

Ryan Wohl details his best bet for Rob Font vs. Raul Rosas Jr. at tonight’s UFC 326 event.

The third fight of the UFC 326 Main Card features a Bantamweight contest between No. 13 Rob Font vs. Raul Rosas Jr. Font, 38, is a 12-year UFC veteran and is coming off a loss to David Martinez at Noche UFC in September 2025. Rosas looks to pick up his victory over a top-15 opponent and increase his winning streak to five.

Check out my best bet for Rob Font vs. Raul Rosas Jr. at tonight’s UFC 326 numbered event.

Rosas has been in the UFC since December 2022 and is still only 21 years old. Since suffering his first career loss to Christian Rodriguez at UFC 287 in April 2023, Rosas has won four consecutive bouts, with his latest coming against Vince Morales in March 2025. After losing to Rodriguez, Rosas has been less active and has taken a slower approach to rising in the 135-pound division. It has been nearly a full year since we last saw Rosas compete, and he has only fought three times in the last two full calendar years.

With Font’s 39th birthday on the horizon, he cannot afford to lose a second consecutive bout if he wants to make a final climb in the Bantamweight division. Font’s previous victory came against Jean Matsumoto in February 2025. If Font cannot get past the young prospect, his days as a ranked competitor are likely numbered.

On DraftKings Sportsbook, Rosas is a -270 favorite with Font being a +220 underdog in this fight. The over/under for this fight is set at 2.5 rounds, with the over being -260. This contest is -225 to go the distance and +165 to end before the judges’ decision.

Rosas is one inch taller (5’9″ vs. 5’8″), while Font has a four-inch (71″ vs. 67″) reach advantage. On the feet, Font is the better striker, averaging 5.36 significant strikes per minute compared to Rosas’ 1.51. But defensively, Rosas has the edge as he only absorbs 1.37 significant strikes per minute. Rosas’ biggest advantage comes on the ground, where he lands four takedowns per 15 minutes, which should lead to success since Font only has a 43% takedown defense.

Font has more experience than Rosas, but Font is pretty far removed from competing at the highest level. Rosas has won his last two fights by decison and another win on the judges’ scorecards is likely since Font has only been finished once. You can get Rosas at -105 to win this fight via decison.
