Overview
- Raul Rosas Jr. was awarded a fifth-round TKO by slam in the UFC Vegas 121 main event, a result recorded after the Sept. 26 fight.
- During the fifth round Raoni Barcelos lost consciousness on a takedown and was taken to a Las Vegas Level 1 trauma center for CT scan and assessment.
- Barcelos was released from hospital but remains under ongoing evaluation with MRIs and neurological tests at the UFC Performance Institute while he recovers.
- Team reports have described possible brain swelling as a factor, but that observation has not been released as a formal clinical diagnosis by doctors.
- The UFC flew Barcelos’s family to Las Vegas and has supported his care, he and Rosas publicly reunited, and any return to fighting will depend on definitive medical findings, regulator clearance and the six‑month restrictions currently being applied.
