UFC 307 bragte drama og knockout, da Alex Pereira slog Khalil Rountree Jr. og beholdt sit bælte. Hvad skete der ellers på denne intense aften?
I en spændende kamp ved UFC 307, der fandt sted i Salt Lake City, Utah, formåede den brasilianske lyssværvægtsmester Alex Pereira at forsvare sit mesterskab mod den overraskende udfordrer, Khalil Rountree Jr. Publikum var i åndenødden, da de to kæmpere bød på en intens dyst, men det var Pereira, der i sidste ende stjal showet med sin sublime knockout, der satte punktum for Rountrees bestræbelser. Kampen var så spændende, at man næsten glemte at trække vejret – nu er det sikkert at sige, at Pereira er en af de stærkeste i UFC!
Detaljeret scoring satte fokus på kampens gang, og dommerne så på hver eneste runde lidt som hvis man kiggede på en fodboldkamp; der var strategier, overraskelser og knap så forudsigelige vendinger, som gjorde kampen endnu mere fascinerende. Pereira kom ind til kampen med en plan, og Rountree, der virkelig var oppe mod sin hårdeste modstander til dato, gjorde sit bedste for at gøre kampen til en thriller, men til sidst blev energien til overskud.
Pereira kan især takke sin stærke kondition for sejren; efterhånden som runderne gik, blev Rountrees styrke sat på prøve, og han kunne ikke følge med det tempo, som Pereira satte. Med sin knockout-sejr beviste Pereira, hvorfor han er den nuværende mester i lyssværvægten og hvorfor det er skægt at følge hans rejse ind i UFCs historiebøger.
I en anden kamp på kortet genvandt Julianna Peña kvindernes bantamvægtskrone fra Raquel Pennington. Selvom denne kamp ikke fik ligeså meget opmærksomhed som hovedbegivenheden, var det ikke mindre spændende og viste igen, hvor dygtige disse kæmpere er. UFC 307 vil helt sikkert blive husket for det drama, intensitet og den rå styrke, der blev udvist af begge hold.
