Khalil Rountree, a fighter in the UFC's welterweight division, recalled an early loss to the division's champion Alex Pereira.

"Before the fight I asked the trainer, 'I'm very relaxed - is that normal?' and he said, 'Yes - it's perfect.' When I was already in the cage and Alex was coming out, all I remember is feeling happy. Even when he finished me, I was happy. Throughout the fight, I was overwhelmed with happiness. I had the feeling that I belonged here and was where I was supposed to be. It was like I had fallen into my dream."
