Khalil Ibn Rountree Jr. is an American professional mixed martial artist who competes in the Light Heavyweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). Born in LA, Rountree's life took a tragic turn when his father was shot during an attempted robbery while working as the tour manager for Boyz II Men when Rountree was just two years old. Despite the adversity, Rountree turned his focus towards MMA. After a year of training, he embarked on his MMA journey, beginning his amateur career in 2011. Rountree also trained Muay Thai to refine his striking abilities and further elevate his performance inside the Octagon. Currently, he is ranked #8 in the light-heavyweight division of the UFC.
