Displays huge heart in loss to Jared Cannonier
Roehrick lost to Jared Cannonier via TKO (strikes) at 2:08 of Round 3 at The Ultimate Fighter 25 Finale on Friday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
It would be a shame if Roehrick doesn't earn a $50,000 Fight of the Night bonus for his efforts. Overmatched from the moment the opening bell rang, the debuting Roehrick ate dozens of shots that would have finished any mere mortal. He may not have won, but the 29-year-old who took the fight on 48 hours notice made plenty of new fans in his UFC debut. He will certainly be given another opportunity with the company.

Late replacement for Steve Bosse at TUF 25 Finale
Roehrick will replace Steve Bosse (undisclosed) in a scheduled light heavyweight matchup against Jared Cannonier at the TUF 25 finale on Friday, Danny Segura of MMAFighting.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Roehrick, a 29-year-old prospect with a 7-0 record, will be taking a fight on very short notice in an effort to get added to the UFC roster. He'll need to show something to stick around, but the cards are stacked against him against Cannonier, a 33-year-old with a 2-2 UFC record. Cannonier took top contender Glover Teixeira to a decision in his last fight, and although anything can happen when the Octagon doors close, Roehrick will be a significant step down in competition.
