UFC fighters react to Alex Pereira's bloody stoppage of Khalil Rountree Jr. at UFC 307

/Posted by / 3 / 0

Many think Alex Pereira is the scariest man in the UFC right now. His quick rise to the middleweight title shocked everyone and going into UFC 307 after winning and defending the light heavyweight title twice, he seemed unbeatable. 

But Khalil Rountree Jr. was looking to break the curse. He was unsuccessful. 

In the first round, the two fighters traded quick and hard shots. It was a closer round than most fans had anticipated might happen. 

Pereira got dropped in the second with what seemed like a lucky shot considering how tired Rountree was but they moved on to round three. 

Less action happened in round three but it was clear Pereira was respecting the power of Rountree and that Rountree appeared to be suffering in the legs. 

The fourth round was an absolute bloodbath as Pereira pieced Rountree apart and eventually earned the TKO win in the final moments of the fourth round. 

After the fight Pereira said he’d be open to heavyweight but wasn’t in any rush to head out of the light heavyweight division.
