    Twenty-seven-year-old Pearson won his last fight at UFC 141 where he defeated Junior Assunção via decision in his featherweight debut. He is scheduled to face Cub Swanson at UFC on FX 4 on June 22nd in his second outing as a featherweight. Ross is currently helping out as part of Dominick Cruz’s coaching team on “The Ultimate Fighter Live” and this is the reason for his current presence in Las Vegas.
