The American fighter delivered a spectacular performance against reigning light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira at UFC 307, which took place on Oct. 6 at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City, Utah. The 34-year-old went into the fight on the back of a five-fight winning streak.

In the first round, Rountree Jr. found success with his strikes, while Pereira tried to find his rhythm and range. In the second round, both fighters went back and forth, ‘The War Horse’ landed some powerful strikes, while the Brazilian responded with a big head kick.

In the third and fourth rounds, Pereira demonstrated why he’s the champion, delivering serious damage to the American. Despite the damage he took, Rountree Jr. fought valiantly.

Eventually, however, 'Poatan's' assault proved to be too much. He cornered Rountree Jr. against the fence, and landed some vicious blows, prompting the referee to stop the fight.
