LAS VEGAS – Dustin Jacoby thinks there’s a glaring chink in Khalil Rountree’s armor.
Jacoby (18-5-1 MMA, 6-2-1 UFC) takes on Rountree (10-5 MMA, 6-5 UFC) on Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 213 main card opener at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. The card streams on ESPN+.
Unbeaten in the UFC since his return after years in kickboxing, Jacoby is enjoying his best octagon run. Rountree, too, arguably is in his best form with back-to-back TKOs of Modestas Bukauskas and Karl Roberson. But Jacoby says Rountree’s inconsistent career is a sign of weakness.
