Palelei vs. Rosholt set for UFC Fight Night in New Zealand

Soa Palelei isn't wasting any time getting back into the Octagon.

The 36-year-old heavyweight is fresh off his knockout victory over Ruan Potts at UFC Fight Night 40 last Saturday and the UFC has already announced his next match-up, which takes place on June 28 at UFC Fight Night 43 in New Zealand against Jared Rosholt.

With 11 wins in a row, all by knockout or TKO, Palelei is one of the more interesting figures in the UFC's heavyweight division after finishing his first three opponents in the promotion. Boasting a 21-3 overall record, Palelei's only three losses have come to Daniel Cormier, Eddie Sanchez, and Cho Mu-Bae.

His opponent Rosholt is a former NCAA Division I wrestler with a 2-0 record in the UFC and is regarded as a top heavyweight prospect with an impressive overall record of 10-1.
