Khalil Rountree performed quite well at UFC Baku despite not being 100% healthy.
In a video on his YouTube channel, the light heavyweight standout revealed that he suffered a torn meniscus in camp ahead of his unanimous decision triumph over Jamahal Hill in this past Saturday’s main event.
“I’d say about halfway through training camp, when I was training jiu-jitsu, is the first time I felt some discomfort in my knee. Just from training with bigger guys and doing four sessions per day, on top of running, jiu-jitsu, and pads — that’s when I first started feeling the discomfort.
