UFC light heavyweight Khalil Rountree got back to Las Vegas on Sunday after his brawl with champion Alex Pereira Saturday in the main event of UFC 307 at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City, Utah, and on Monday, had surgery to repair a deviated septum.
Rountree put up a spirited effort against one of the greatest MMA fighters of his generation, but fell short and was stopped in the fourth.
But Rountree acquitted himself unbelievably well, so much so that the crowd stood as one and chanted his name in unison after the fight.
Rountree talks about the fight, the injury he suffered in sparring before it happened and what his plans are for a return. He expects to be back early next year and wouldn't mind reprising a canceled fight he'd had scheduled with former champion Jamahal Hill.
