Rashad Evans is forecasting a light heavyweight title change in the UFC 307 main event.
UFC Hall of Famer for former 205-pound champion Evans thinks Khalil Rountree is a live underdog going into his clash with reigning titleholder Alex Pereira, which takes place Saturday at Delta Center in Salt Lake City (ESPN+ pay-per-view, ESPNews, ESPN+).
The vibe coming from Rountree (13-5 MMA, 9-5 UFC) and his team is that he’s going to play right into Pereira’s (11-2 MMA, 8-1 UFC) desire position by standing and striking. For Evans’ vision of a win to come to life, he said that can’t be entirely the case.
