Raoni Barcelos Plans to Submit Trevin Jones, Return at UFC Rio

Ultimate Fighting Championship bantamweight Raoni Barcelos is not looking past his next opponent, but he has a very clear plan for the near future.

Once considered by some to be another version of Jose Aldo at bantamweight, Barcelos finds himself in a tough place now. The Brazilian is coming from two losses in a row, with defeats to Timur Valiev and Victor Henry in 2021 and 2022, respectively. Those setbacks put a nine-fight win streak in the rear-view mirror. On Saturday at UFC Fight Night 211, Barcelos will have the opportunity to get back to his winning ways in Las Vegas.
