Khalil Rountree continues to handle his UFC 307 defeat with class. Although Rountree (13-6 MMA, 9-6 UFC) gave an interview in the cage Saturday at Delta Center in Salt Lake City, as he nearly bled all over commentator Joe Rogan, he did not post anything on social media until Sunday.

Khalil Rountree has issued a statement after being stopped by Alex Pereira in their UFC 307 title fight in the light heavyweight division.

One of the most remarkable runs in UFC history continues, but after much more difficulty than expected. Alex Pereira methodically broke down a game Khalil Rountree Jr. and used a bruising sequence of body punches to retain his light heavyweight championship with a fourth-round stoppage Saturday night in the main event of UFC 307 at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City.
