[@SergioMendoza760]

I don’t think so. I think Khalil might be the only opponent that Alex faces during his light heavyweight title run that survives more than 2 rounds. I think Khalil, while learning Muay Thai over in Thailand probably learned first hand how dangerous a striker like Alex can be and will take precautions to try and survive and find an opportunity to win. I don’t think he will actually win tho, Alex has pretty decent reach advantage over Khalil that is going to lead to a left hook counter ko in no later than 3 rounds. Quite frankly I feel like I’m being generous giving Khalil 3 rounds to survive because deep down I don’t think this one makes it past 2.
