Rob Font’s confidence in superior cardio at UFC 326 suggests bettors should favor him to win later rounds; consider wagering on Font by decision or a second-half stoppage, and use live markets to fade Raul Rosas Jr.’s expected early aggression.
Rob Font leans on cardio as key advantage over Raul Rosas Jr. at UFC 326
Rob Font insists his edge in endurance will be decisive as he prepares to face Raul Rosas Jr. in the UFC bantamweight main card at T-Mobile Arena. Font believes Rosas will come out aggressive early, but expects to outlast and dominate once the pace slows.
Endurance vs. early onslaught
"I think he's going to be aggressive in the first two minutes," Font said, forecasting Rosas will stand and trade more than many expect. "I do think he gets tired. I don't get tired in fights, even when I'm getting beat up, I still can push a pace. I believe he gets tired. I believe I'm going to be a lot more calm and collected when it gets chaotic in there. Yeah, I just have to make sure I don't give him anything, don't get clipped with anything stupid."
Training adjustments and camp details
Font confirmed a continued training shift to Tristar in Montreal, a change from previous full camps with the New England Cartel. He described the recent camp as focused and productive, with long, disciplined sessions and support from teammates and family, including his brother Calvin Kattar.
Fight outlook and tactical expectations
Font’s plan appears to be to weather an early onslaught, maintain a calm rhythm, and capitalize as Rosas’ pace fades. That suggests a potential tactical matchup where Font controls the middle and late rounds, using steadier output and composure in chaotic moments.
Betting implications for punters
Given Font’s confidence in superior cardio, the smart markets to consider are round and method bets favoring later rounds, Font by decision, or a late TKO rather than an early finish.

Live betting could be valuable: if Rosas shows heavy early aggression but tires, odds may swing toward Font in the second half, offering value for bettors who anticipate a momentum shift.
