4. George Roop vs. Rob Font
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Id5qnqzlZs Weight Class: Bantamweight Kicking off the televised preliminary card is a bantamweight battle between George Roop (15-11-1) and UFC newcomer Ron Font (10-1). Font, who previously fought at featherweight, is a former CES (Classic Sports and Entertainment) featherweight champion who has admitted that Roop is a big step up for him in his debut UFC fight. Roop, meanwhile, is coming off a decision win over Dustin Kimura, and is 3-1 in his last four fights in the UFC. Font, for his part, is on a 9-fight win streak. Expect octagon debut jitters and Roop's experience to play a big factor here. Roop takes the win, with a decision being likely.
