Alright, let’s talk about this young fella, Raúl Rosas Jr. Folks keep jabberin’ about him, so I figured I’d try and make sense of it all. You know, like when you’re tryin’ to figure out why the rooster’s crowin’ at noon.
Raúl Rosas Jr.’s Fightin’ Stuff
This kid, they say he’s a fighter. A mixed martial arts fighter, whatever that means. Sounds fancy, but I bet it’s just a whole lot of punchin’ and kickin’. Now, they got all these numbers and stats, like they’re countin’ beans at the market. They say he’s got a “record.” Like he’s done somethin’ wrong? I don’t know. But this record, it tells you how many fights he’s won and lost. Seems important to some folks.
They also talk about his “striking accuracy.” Now, that’s just how often he hits the other guy when he throws a punch or a kick. They say he’s around 43%, which means he misses more than half the time. Heck, even I could probably do better than that with a fly swatter! They say he lands about 1.12 “significant strikes” per minute. Sounds like they’re tryin’ to make punchin’ sound important. A punch is a punch, I say.
- Strikes: He punches and kicks, but not always good.
- Accuracy: He misses a lot, more than half the time.
- “Significant Strikes”: They say he lands a little over one good punch a minute.
Then there’s this “takedown” stuff. Apparently, they try to wrestle each other to the ground. They got percentages for that too. I guess it’s like tryin’ to catch a greased pig at the county fair. Sometimes you get ’em, sometimes you don’t.
Raúl Rosas Jr. – The Youngster
Now, this Raúl fella, he’s real young. Only 19 years old! Can you believe that? Barely out of diapers, and he’s already fightin’ grown men. Reminds me of that time my grandson tried to wrestle the calf. Didn’t end well for the calf, let me tell you.
They say he’s got some kinda… whatchamacallit… “genetic disorder.” Pallister W Syndrome, they call it. Makes his face look a bit different, they say. Wide nose, big space between his eyes. But you know what? It don’t matter what a person looks like, it’s what’s inside that counts. Like my mama always said, “Pretty is as pretty does.”
Fights and Cancellations
This kid was supposed to fight some other fellas. One fella named Christian Rodriguez, another named Aoriqileng. They even had a fight set up in Las Vegas, Nevada. Sounds like a fancy place. I’ve never been to Las Vegas, but I hear they got bright lights and lots of noise. Too much for an old lady like me, I reckon.
But then, they cancelled the fights! Just like that. No fightin’. They didn’t say why, just that it was off. Maybe they got scared? Maybe they ate somethin’ that didn’t agree with them? Who knows. It’s like when the rain comes and ruins the picnic. You just gotta pack up and go home.
That “Chiwiwis” Thing
And this Raúl kid, he’s got a funny word he likes to say: “Chiwiwis.” They asked him what it means, and he said it don’t mean nothin’! Just a silly word he and his friend made up. Kids these days, always with their funny words. Reminds me of when my kids used to make up nonsense words. Drove me crazy, it did.
So, What’s the Big Deal?
So, there you have it. That’s what I know about Raúl Rosas Jr. He’s a young fighter with some numbers attached to his name. He wins some, he loses some, he misses a lot of punches. He’s got a funny word and a face that’s a little different. But at the end of the day, he’s just a young fella tryin’ to make his way in the world. Just like the rest of us.
And that’s all I gotta say about that.
