Khalil Rountree Jr. is a month removed from the biggest fight of his life and his injuries from that brutal battle appear to be mostly healed.
The light heavyweight contender went almost 20 minutes with champion Alex Pereira at UFC 307 this past October, pushing “Poatan” to the limit before succumbing to strikes near the end of the fourth round. Rountree was battered and bloodied by the former kickboxing star, but received plenty of praise for his performance.
Shortly after, Rountree announced he would be undergoing surgery on his nose to address facial injuries sustained in the fight. Rountree has been traveling to rest and relax in the aftermath of UFC 307 and he shared an Instagram post Monday that included a picture of his face post-surgery.

Though Rountree appears to be showing visible scars, he’s unquestionably in much better shape than he was weeks ago.
Funnily enough, Pereira has also needed time to recover from their fight. “Poatan” recently told Podpah that his hand is still hurting from punching Rountree. Considering the long list of knockouts Pereira has on his résumé, that says a lot about Rountree’s toughness.
Rountree likely looks ahead to 2025 for his next booking after seeing a five-fight win streak snapped in his first UFC title opportunity.
