Ahead of this weekend’s title fight at UFC 307, Khalil Rountree’s head coach has labelled Alex Pereira’s striking as “ugly” — but nevertheless, lethal in a potential warning to his own student.
Headlining this weekend’s return to Salt Lake City, Utah — undisputed light heavyweight champion, Pereira will look to defend his 205lbs title for the third time this year alone, following prior devastating knockouts of both Jiri Prochazka and former champion, Jamahal Hill.
As for Rountree, the Ultimate Fighter finalist enters his title fight and pay-per-view headliner first this weekend at the Delta Center, attempting to upset the apple cart with a win over the Sao Paulo striker, and extend his impressive winning run to six straight fights.
