Nicky Rod Grapples with Ranked UFC Light Heavyweight

B Team product Nick Rodriguez, AKA Nicky Rod, AKA The Black Belt Slayer, will take on Roberto Jimenez in the co-main event of UFC Fight Pass Invitational 6.

Leading up to the event, Rodriguez was able to get some reps on the mat against the number eight ranked UFC light heavyweight Khalil Rountree Jr.

Needless to say, Nicky Rod made Rountree look like an amateur grappler.
