UFC bantamweight title challenger Khalil Rountree has spoken out about his fight against division champion Alex Pereira.

It was announced this past weekend that the American and Brazilian will headline UFC 307 in Salt Lake City on Oct. 5.

"How do you beat Pereira? I won't reveal my strategy. But it's definitely possible. As for wrestling - in my entire career, I have not made a single attempt to transfer to the parterre. It's not part of my plans. I'm ready to give the fans a delightful show. It will be a fight for the fans, they won't be disappointed.

All my fights are spectacular. There will be a lot of violence. At the end I will also try on the UFC championship belt," said Rountree in an interview with The Schmo.
