BIG Vs Small. MMA Vs Muay Thai. Khalil Rountree Jr. Vs Tay Matee. What happens when you put a UFC superstar in the ring with a professional Muay Thai fighter in the heart of Bangkok at the YOKKAO Training Center? THIS! Our good friend Khalil Rountree Jr. stops bye to train with the YOKKAO Fight Team as he travels Thailand on holiday. From bag work to pads, Tay Matee was more than happy to invite Khalil into the ring for a few back and forth rounds of play sparring. Changing up styles for UFC Light Heavyweight Khalil as he’s faced with the contrasting style in traditional Muay Thai. which he adapted to immediately, moulding himself into a Nak Muay in his won right. Being the far larger fighter even in the scorching Bangkok heat, Khalil kept things competitive and fluid through the two rounds of sparring, that would be fit for any Muay Thai stadium. As the final bell rings, Khalil comically falls to the canvas and both fighters reunite in the corner for some well needed rest and hydration. How do you think Khalil faired against Tay Matee? Let us know in the comments below!

  • Wish all heavy dudes knew how to spar like this. Total control.

  • I have not been a fan of Roundtree previously but seeing him sparr like this made me a fan. He is twice the other guys size and keeps it respectful. I know how it feels to spar with bigger dudes that just bully you. It is not fun.

    • @@foulelements thought of him as a hypocrite. Talks a big game about kindness and then completely murdered the Lithuanian guys knee. A while back. Then you are a bit of a psychopath. (Even if it is legal.)

    • he genuinely seems like one of the best/nicest people to have fought in the UFC. Been a fan for a long time and he has been training in Thailand for a while now. He might be the only UFC fighter that can block/check kicks lol. I see why Anderson Silva was such a fan of him

  • Love the respect after Khalil drops him with the calf kick. Walks forward and lets Tay Matee work. That's the measure of a man right there.

  • My favorite UFC standup fighter. Definitely the most entertaining to watch when it comes to striking, especially at the higher weight classes.

  • This is why Khalils techniques are crisp. If you're not going full out yoh can spar like this all day and work on all the stuff you wanna take into the lab. Don't get me wrong there are benefits to intense sparring but dudes that go full out every day usually shorten their careers before they leave amatuers and go professional.

    • He's too big for ONE MT

      @keithlarrimore@keithlarrimore2 ай бұрын

  • While this isn't entirely unique to this style, a big part of Muay Thai culture is focusing on light, technical sparring. The thing I was always taught when learning Muay Thai is "heavy not hard". This way, you can practice your moves with good technique and reasonable power that your partner is aware of, while also not trying to physically dominate them. This footage is a great display of that, big ups to Khalil and Tay 🔥🔥

    • People really don't understand how big 205ers are until you see them in person.

      @rico14@rico144 ай бұрын

    • Rountree's just not as tall has the other guys but Khalil used to be over 300 pounds and turned most of the weight into muscle, but he's as big as anybody at light heavyweight and def one of the strongest.

  • Get so used to seeing Rountree vs other larger 205ers like Walker or Smith that I forget just how massive the man is compared to "ordinary people".
