SALT LAKE CITY– Alex Pereira and Khalil Rountree had their very first main faceoff of UFC 307 battle week following Thursday’s pre-fight interview, and both males appeared secured.
Light heavyweight champ Pereira (11-2 MMA, 8-1 UFC) will try to make the 3rd defense of his reign– all considering that April– when he clashes with effective striker Rountree (13-5 MMA, 9-5 UFC) in a match that’s relatively predestined to end in a knockout.
After a cordial exchange of words at journalism conference in front of fans and media, Pereira and Rountree got in person and revealed a few of the strength anticipated when they enter the octagon for Saturday’s headliner at Delta Center (ESPN+ pay-per-view, ESPNews, ESPN+).
