Also look at Roundtree,s Resume took him 3 rounds to get rid of Smith which would be a 1st round highlight Ko for Alex and look at rest of list he managed to get up there never having met Jiri or Hill or even Glover, to me he is way way way way way over hyped

I was confused about Khalil getting a title shot. Prob should fight one more under 5 ranked before. Then I remember Alex has got his opportunities as well. Like loosing in middle weight then getting a top rank fight in light heavy weight. Plus as soon as he got to the UFC he was only 3 fights in before he got a title shot. Well deserved and has made the UFC More exciting. Saved many cards as well. So excited for the Khalil opportunity!!!!

[@echoesroll]

Besides Alex had 3 fights on UFC before title shot , can not ignore he was a kickboxer double champion from a great organization, and champion from many others .. he didn’t have to prove itself to the top , he was already on top !

mismatch fighting the #8 ranked fighter. Poatan just beat Prochazka twice. This is an easy day at the office for Poatan.

[@astralseeker]

Alex "saved" a few crucial ufc events lately, and took on champs one after the other. It's not very difficult to imagine the ufc protecting him and rewarding him a bit, by giving him an opponent much shorter, not a wrestler, not a ufc champ, still a dangerous opponent but "easier" than other options and certainly easier than his last 7.

[@franciscoreis3717]

⁠@@astralseekerhow is it protecting. Yall refuse to look at the facts. None of the first 7 contenders were ready to fight, its that simple

[@leonard.castillo1937]

Think you might be right ! But that’s when shit happens !! Hope he doesn’t underestimate Khalil and comes in with same conviction and intensity . Get him out quick . It’s the reason why he’s able to fight so often , he’s always training , his fights are short and doesn’t sustain much damage at all . Long layoffs make fighters get out of shape and lazy

[@astralseeker]

@@franciscoreis3717 Alex fought in april and june. he "does not have to " fight now. He could fight in 2025, or n2 ankalev or n5 Rakic. Instead of resting or fighting higher opponents he fights n8 rountree. He refused to fight ankalaev because of location, alex did not want to fight in middle orient. I think that even if rountree could be a kind of "reward" for alex from the ufc, in the end, I am not sure rakic or ankalev are more dangerous for alex than khalil. He's fast, powerful, and I personaly prefer muaithai over kickboxing anyday.

[@mstrsrvr]

I'm glad we don't have to wait 2/3 years for a light heavyweight title contest. Instead, we've had more title fights than regular fights at the division just this year. I couldn't be happier.

[@thedoggfather3567]

This hopefully will be a banger I’m a fan of both of these guys

[@pietrogiuanni4432]

It can be either Alex picking rountree apart with the left kick at distance or rountree rushing in all aggressive and getting countered with a left hook . Only way rountree wins is with a lucky punch.

[@ab-zo6jt]

Remember how Jamahal Hill talked himself up? Just bc you're confident, doesn't mean you're going to do what you set out to do. Alex was probably the best kickboxer in the world when he moved to MMA. So Khalil is going to play into Alex's strength? Not smart.

Trainer Gae will make you a champion.

[@freddie514]

CHAMA! I take Khalil at his word when he says "I'm not going to shoot for a take down", and his past proves that. Khalil poses danger, and I believe Alex knows that as well. I see Poaton pulling it off. Only question is if it will be as cleanly as his last two forays in the octagon.

[@mintoure4]

At this point I don't care as much if he wins or loses like I did before, I just wanna see Alex fight and make the best out of his last few years fighting. There's a different kind of thrill when you see him go out there looking vulnerable but keeps knocking people out.

[@cameronturner7077]

Between Alex's hooks knees and low kicks he covers all areas of the body very well and with his height his pulls are very effective. He's going to be very difficult for a shorter guy to defeat but Roundtree has excellent lateral movement so that's going to be key if he can just get inside.

[@razor26047]

This fight should be a good opportunity for Alex to show his ground game if he wants, that could probably help him get the finish on the feet.
