Roosevelt “The Predator” Roberts (10-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC)

Roosevelt Roberts has eight career finishes, five are by way of submission, and three are via KO/TKO. Roberts has just two professional career wins by decision. ‘The Predator’ has finished two of his opponents in the UFC thus far and has really impressed some fans.  Roberts has some very slick submission and grappling skills. Roosevelt’s skills on the ground pair nicely with his physical attributes as he is 6’2″ and has a 73″ reach so he can tangle up his opponents even easier.

The scheduled fight on June 20 is a pretty quick turn around for Roberts, who last fought on May 30 when he finished Brok Weaver with a beautiful rear-naked choke in the second round.
