Adesanya reacts to UFC 307 main event
Along with comic Andrew Schulz, longtime rival Israel Adesanya responded to Pereira's win on his YouTube page.
Many were taken aback by Rountree's superb shooting in rounds one and two, as it appeared like he was beating Pereira.
Rountree struck Pereira with a right hook as he slipped under a just missed high kick in the second round.
In a rare moment of indecision, the usually cool Pereira grounded "Poatan" and lit up the arena.
After being hit, Alex got better and started to become more aggressive. Rountree appeared more immovable as Pereira's characteristic low kicks accumulated, allowing Pereira to unleash a more destructive volume.
Pereira had found his groove by the fourth round, answering to nearly everything thrown at him.
Rountree was given every chance to continue fighting by the referee, but two body blows knocked Khalil out cold.
