I really enjoy this channel of yours
He’s like the only fighter who knows you can kick a grounded opponent as long as you don’t hit their head.
He really is
Most are probably too scared too they don’t wanna get their finish overturned
Completely agree with this. He’s clinical with it. His brain is just wired differently. Not afraid to pull the trigger and not sure I can remember him ever hitting an illegal blow with it.
Dumb comment
I was watching and wondering why more fighters don't do the same.
Khalil "Guys you can kick grounded opponents just not their heads" Rountree
Watched just enough Pride to learn the legal kicks in the UFC.
Fr that is so under utilized
Is that not a soccer kick which I thought was illegal?
@@Apple_Slices.Totally legal, just not to the head
@@artifex2.080 I'm surprised fighters don't use it more. I guess they might be worried they'll hit the head and get a NC or something.
“Bangkok ready” Khalil Rountree is the most underrated mythical fighter
Tbh It feels good to see cans🥫 get more coverage in the UFC
@@laughingtothebanklikehahah3618 u said what now? Bro he ain’t no can did u watch this video?
Facts
@@laughingtothebanklikehahah3618 youse a casual.
@@laughingtothebanklikehahah3618 how to out yourself as a casual for dummies.
Love it when he throws the body kick to grounded opponents
@@bird_up oh brother please go watch some Pride FC preferably the Grand Prix 2000 or 03 open weight 😮💨 they throw soccer kicks to the head of a grounded opponent
@@bird_up gsp vs sera 2 was brutal for grounded body shots.
I love the ground strike game to the body. Khalil does it as well as GSP/Yoel. Just viscous. GSP knees: kzhead.info/sun/mslmXZl6aoGDpGg/bejne.html Romero elbows: kzhead.infotD1PRXZ3DVc
@@bird_up I love it that shit hits so hard
@@johngotti3487 ya but we’re talking about body kicks to grounded opponents. Do miss wandy stomping on dudes in pride tho
He has nothing but bad intentions when he fights, that's something that can't be taught.
I love that
Him, Matt Brown, Chito Vera, young Wandy and young Robbie Lawler have a talent for unadulterated violence.
@@TheMuffinManIsHappy great examples brother
Yeah, he fights with more hate in his heart than anything I've ever seen.
@@TheMuffinManIsHappy Just got me all excited for Chito this weekend, and Sandhagen is no boring fighter himself
Dude is so peaceful and cool outside of the octagon, but the way he finished Roberson so viciously last time can't be overlooked. Literally like chum to a shark. Once he hits his stride, he's gonna be a huge problem.
I always said the dude was like an anti-Sean Strickland. Legit fights the way Strickland talks and talks the way Strickland fights.
The viciousness was borderline jaw-dropping to see! Loved it
Once he gets his grappling down he'll be a serious problem, his style remids me of OG pride fighters like Shogun
@@clearlyalunhead1109he won't tho.
Definitely the Mike Tyson of MMA who can kick like a mule
Khalil rountree is like the Michael Johnson of the light heavyweight division
this is extremely accurate
Haven’t heard a better take lmaoo
😂😂
Much better! He should go down to middleweight though! That would be interesting!
@@imheretocausetrouble2156 he’s way too big bro. That’s another 20 lbs to cut. His chin will just deteriorate and he doesn’t need to fight smaller guys lmao for what?
Honestly this guy scares me to the level of guys like Rampage and Ngannou once you've been knocked down he gonna break 15 consecutive bones in your body
That push kick to the knee was dirty even though its legal
@@TheArccoreyea I hate that move so much but it's definitely effective and create space.
The way he was swinging on Karl Roberson you'd think he'd murdered Khalil's entire family! I desperately want to see Khalil go on one decent title run before he calls it a career. I also love the attention and awareness he brings to mental health.
Lol the entire family
He has so much potential just needs to work on wrestling and grappling like Francis, his power reminds me of Rumble
he retired?
@@fkz4155 no?
bro will never be champ, bullies smaller weaker fighters, prolly losing his next fight, come back to this comment when he does
idk why more fighters dont utilize that body kick to grounded fighters like rountree does, its so devastating and catches recovering fighters off guard
yeah it's weird, people barely even knee the body on the ground
I think it’s because the margain for error is so small, if the move and you catch anything near their head you’re getting DQ’ed
@@Ad.44.. truee
Holy shit that stomp to the knee was fucking vicious, it was hard to watch that dude's knee bend the wrong way
im recovering from an ACL & meniscus surgery and I literally yelled when I saw that shit LOL
@@ijasonxi1 Same dude 😭
I have no qualms about kicking someone into a coma or rupturing their liver with a shovel hook, but I don't think I could stomp someone's knee like that.
He's a real piece of shit for that.
@@clapdrix72 someone would do yours
He throws like a man who had depression for years (I know he did actually)
And when the takedown comes he is like a fish out of water
@@leoX11 who cares
@@PullThatUpJamie his chin cares
FACT bro. He's been through hell and back a few times, you can tell
He did go through depression... he was fat and got into shape through martial arts...
He’s basically the new Melvin Manhoef your best chance of winning is to just take him to the ground 😂
@julian marx it’s mma everyone gets knocked out if cracked right 😂
This guy has Wanderlei Silva level killer instinct.
his first mma gym was Wanderlei's
@@KrikZ32 Bravo . Silva deserves at least some credit then . For the level he reached.
@@KrikZ32 those hammer fists . Something to marvel at .
@@mmaandfightadvisor6779 he kneefucked rampage into dust in his prime wanderlai was a beast
@@mmaandfightadvisor6779 absolutely
By far one of the most vicious fighters in the UFC roster. He has insane power in his hands and legs, if he cracks you clean you’re getting seriously hurt. When he hurts you, he goes for the finish with absolute fury, just completely overwhelms his opponents with power shots. One of the few fighters to realise how possible it is to finish a fight on the feet without head-hunting. His body kicks/knees, leg kicks and stomps are brutal to watch and so effective. He’s an animal
Stop, his records blows
@@stephengrunden4830 true, that’s because his grappling isn’t good. Still, he’s a good fighter
I think he'd actually give us entertaining fight against Pereira
@@youwantmyname9208 we're getting him vs. Jamahal now, this should be entertaining
Insane how he's the only fighter in the ufc utilizing body kicks to a downed opponent. Scary effective
That fight against Anders was one of the best performances I've ever seen from any fighter. He went on a striking clinic in that fight. And Anders is a tough guy. The fact that he reached the final bell in that fight was a feat in itself.
Damn yeah that was crazy as fuck
he looked like he was throwing combos at 2x speed. Insane!
That fight should havé been stopped. Referee are blind in thé ufc and team Never throw the towel
Dude has some of the most savage finishes in ufc history and is also really dope person. One of the few guys I root for no matter who he is fighting.
Always felt like body shots arent used enough. Khalil is one of those guys who really do dig in to the body.
Ngl I always felt like body shots weren’t that effective until I actually started training, holy shit man
Jack Della Maddalena's another guy with really solid body work, nothing as ruthless as Khalil's kicks but still
@@ThePlaybackRoom Still recall getting hit with a spinning backkick to the gut. Legit thought my insides fell out my asshole. Hurt so god damn bad.
@@ThePlaybackRoom I’ll never forget my first shot to the liver. I was stunned.
"Some days you're the hammer, some days you're the nail" personified = Khalil Rountree
If Khalil became a NFL punter he'd be scoring from the 90 yard line every match, the grounded kick game is insane
🤡
@@JSp8😂
He’s such a nice guy but so ruthless in the cage, it’s legitimately two different people. So underrated.
Its the same guy. Some of the nicest people are the ones who have been through some really rough shit. The octagon gives him an outlet to let the inner beast out
Opposite of Strickland
I’ve seen that highlight of walker smashing that dudes head like a melon with those forearm shots a hundred times and never realized it was Roundtree. One of the more brutal KOs I’ve ever seen. It was weirdly intimate and sounded like his skull fractured.
Easily one of my favorite fighters to watch. Speed+power+well executed technical combos. Dudes a monster. Win or lose you know you can't miss a Khalil rountree fight.
Khalil has one of the best killer instincts out there, when he hurts someone he doesn’t let them off the hook and just goes on a all out rampage.
The erik anders performance is still my favourite ever fight
Straight up assault
I’ll never forget that fight. Def one of the best performances ever
I love Khalil. Great to watch fight, relatable with his struggles, and just the pure, unrestrained ferocity with which he decimates people is a sight to behold. There's no-one else like him in the UFC and we're lucky we get to watch him do his thing.
I definitely missed the “3 minutes of..” videos. Good on ya mate.
thanks man went back to the roots on this vid
@@ITPMMA whatever title you use, you always kill it regardless💪🏼
When he's on, he's fucking deadly.
Imagine Rountree vs Wanderlei in Pride
He has the Wanderlei Silva tattoo on his rib
I love Rountree. I'll always root for the dude because he's vicious in the octagon but seems chill as hell outside of it. Plus body kicks to a grounded opponent are other levels of brutal.
Love his growth from his time entrenched in Muay Thai, that Anders fight was when I really noticed how much he’d improved. He looked like an entirely different fighter on the feet
I thought he was gonna break Anders leg. I think that might have been the same night as Gastelum and Adesanya
Khalil Fights has some serious power, he Fights with a ferociousness!
I love the way you edited this. It reminded me of UFC's "Thrill and Agony" videos. Your channel is one of the absolute best of its kind.
I've known Khalil since high school and have been in a few fights with him. Even back before he started training mma he was still ferocious, but has always been a cool dude.
The moment the opponent goes down he starts carefully calculating his shots and throwing them with full force. Insane
Dude's killer instinct is second to none. Those grounded body kicks are vicious!
The dudes hammer fists look like something out of a movie 😂
I’ve commented it on every video I see it show up. That elbow from Walker is arguably the cleanest single strike I’ve ever seen. I’m no mma expert, only been watching since the 2010’s or so, but I have never heard an elbow sound like that before or after…
Bruh had roundtree doing the dead man pose on the canvas too
I’ve actually never notice how fuckin fast his hands are holy shit.
Win or lose he’s one of my favorite, was exciting on his tuf season
man that knee stomp gets me every time. I love watching this dude fight
i only can hope he improves all around. seems super down to earth and his striking is so much fun to watch
I remember watching the Muay thai clinic he put on Eryk Anders and thinking he was forsure the next big thing at 205. I mean I guess he still can be, but he looked unbeatable on that night
his ground body kicks are brutal af
Guy is ferocious, seen very few guys with that kind of killer instinct.
Thank you for giving one of my favorite fighters some LOVE!!!
Khalil makes a great hammer but he is a terrible nail… when he’s on he’s on but wilts when there is resistance
Imagine Khalil vs Thiago Santos. That is if Thiago fights like the monster we knew and loved.
thiago kills him
@@wildberry752 Maybe. They both have the ability and skills to 'kill' their opponent.
i really wish that was thiagos last fight. hill vs santos was great but rountree would have been fireworks
Santos would just shoot takedowns and dominate. He can’t hang with rountree on the feet.
@@bigsmall2842 I was thinking about the Santos that fought Manuwa. Thiago is explosive on the feet too. That's why it would be a fun fight.
bro is not afraid to let them kicks go😭
Storyteller khalil is a gloriously violent sight to behold
When this guy is on, he's scary to watch. Underrated fighter.
3:11 I love the advice “breathe breathe breathe” while in a fully locked choke. I mean it was over the jaw but anyone who has been there knows it really doesn’t matter. 😂
That kick to Roberson's body was extra, extra loud. Sounded like Khalil threw it from the core of the earth 💥🔥.
this dudes Instagram is so calm but the mans a damn monster and i love it!
I hope soccer kicks to body of grounded opponent is used more often, I think Rountree is only one in UFC who uses it well
he’s like a mini francis
Those KOs are unlike anything else I've seen in MMA. After the impact their whole body gets thrown with the punches. That's insane.
He’s the perfect example of fighting within the rules
Love those body kicks when on ground lol.
So entertaining to watch. Throws everything he has into every strike.
0:12 He’s beating that fool like he owes him some money 🤣
He beats people like they’ve owed him money for years and been avoiding his calls and not answering their front door lol
He is ruthless
Video idea: cool moments that aren’t finishes in fights Ex: Crazy scrambles in Tsarukyan v Gamrot. Corey’s left hook combo on Tj
I was every bit as ready for that music as Khalil was ready for that Tyson Pedro takedown. I'm definitely a fan of Roundtree, and he's one of the scariest LHW strikers with everything he learned from his time in Thailand. Jeez if the man ever spends a year in Dagestan, he'll be a champion for sure.
“Bangkok Ready” Rountree is the coolest mythical fighter
That Saki one always breaks my heart 😭
Shut your Turkish lips
Ive known tortoises better off their back
😂😂😂 Fucking disrespect
He actually called the ouchi gari from 0:46 an inner reap, and not a trip at 0:51, and my inner Judoka and linguist were pleased.
the sound that johnny walkers elbow made😱
The dude can absolutely destroy Eryk Anders, Karl Roberson, Gokhan Saki etc. But he loses to guys like cutelaba because of his ground game. If he only he improved that aspect of his game a lot.
Khalil really ended Saki´s MMA carreer...
That last body kick was insannne!
That Pedro edit was amazing
If this guy was competent at defensive wrestling and clinching he would be the most feared fighter along with Francis ngannou , that man is comparable with Mike Tyson for brutalness , great stuff , long may it continue , has the kill instinct of a leopard
Doesn't win the big fights.
Goddamn this guys striking is so clean. Win or lose i love watching his fights
that cross at 0:22...I had to re-watch that so many times. Quick with a beautiful snap
Such a powerful individual
Him vs Alex would be super fun. Hope he climbs onto the rankings before Alex retires. One scary man.
The best KZhead videos channel for MMA highlight
Roundtree is one of my favorite fighters in the ufc. When he's on hes a terminator. I wasn't ready for that violin to come in..... I was close to shedding a tear 😢
Roundtree fights with the doom music at max volume in his head
I love this guy cuz he fights like he in a street fight
The editing is fantastic🤣
Rountree one of the few fighters that pulls off some nasty kicks to grounded opponents
He's actually the only
Fan of his since his TUF days. The dude has crazy power and instinct. Hate to see him lose but that's just part of it. Now he's a BJJ beast with even more skill!
Those kicks be coming with whiplash
His ability to land legal shots in the most tight situations is so impressive man, in the heat of battle he does not miss
That straight in the second clip is straight out of a dream
He is the best at grounded body strikes. His instincts are unlike any LHW I've seen.
Rountree has to be my favourite UFC fighter that isn't considered a prospect. Stoic personality with the fight IQ of a gladiator.
That feint at 3:00 is on another fucking level wow. He faked a low and transitioned it into a switch kick to the head. The way he made it so smooth and quick is art.
Here after watching him get put into UFC 4. Those body kicks are crazy
After this man learned how to clinch properly he can only go up from there. Fell right in love with Muay Thai and his improved thunder kicks show it in spades.
Khalil is my favorite fighter man. His style is so violent and relentless. Its terrifying
Khalil is the definition of bullies making you stronger, that anger inside of him is years of dealing with them and learning how to defend yourself thanks to the A Wholes that made him have to do it.
Win or lose, you can’t deny his post fight interview after meeting Karl Roberson was inspirational.
