Raoni
\nBarcelos<\/a> says medical testing has yet to determine why he lost
\nconsciousness during his
\nUltimate Fighting Championship<\/a> headliner against Raul Rosas
\nJr.<\/a><\/p>\n

Barcelos faced Rosas Jr. in the main event of
\nUFC Vegas 121<\/a> last month. The Brazilian led on the judges\u2019
\nscorecards entering the fifth round but lost consciousness during a
\ngrappling exchange against the fence. Rosas Jr. was awarded a
\ntechnical knockout victory, and the 39-year-old Barcelos was
\ntransported to a Level 1 trauma center.<\/p>\n

Raoni Barcelos undergoes medical tests after losing
\nconsciousness against Raul Rosas Jr. at UFC Vegas 121<\/h2>\n

Barcelos said he is undergoing tests in Las Vegas to determine what
\nhappened. He hopes to continue fighting but has not ruled out
\nretirement.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnfortunately, we don\u2019t know what happened,\u201d Barcelos told MMA
\nFighting. \u201cIt was a sudden illness. I fell ill and I felt my whole
\nbody really starting to go numb. After that, I don\u2019t remember
\nanything. I only remember [arriving] in the ambulance, asking my
\nfather what happened, and him trying to explain it as best as he
\ncould. It really was an unfortunate [circumstance]. I got sick and
\nto this day we still don\u2019t understand. I\u2019m undergoing a battery of
\ntests here in [Las] Vegas. I had another on Monday and we\u2019re
\nwaiting for a good result. The doctor hasn\u2019t released the results
\nyet and everything is being kept confidential. But I feel better
\nevery day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Barcelos (22-6) entered the bout on a five-fight winning streak. He
\nhas competed in the UFC since 2018, compiling an 11-5 promotional
\nrecord with victories over Said
\nNurmagomedov<\/a>, Cody
\nGarbrandt<\/a> and Payton
\nTalbott<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Raoni
\nBarcelos<\/a> is still waiting for a diagnosis after his mysterious
\nhealth scare: “We don\u2019t know what happened. It was a sudden
\nillness. I fell ill, and I felt my whole body really starting to go
\nnumb. After that, I don\u2019t remember anything.” (\ud83c\udfa5 @guicruzzz)
