UFC light-heavyweight Khalil Rountree (8-4) vented his frustration over “fake news” in a personal message to fans on Instagram. In the last few days, Rountree has been rumoured to make his heavyweight debut against Greg Hardy at UFC 252. However, the thirty-year-old revealed that no bout agreement had been signed and that the fight was “nowhere close to confirmed”.
“Shame on you”
Rountree was irked by the broader MMA media jumping on the rumored bout agreement despite the fact he had had little contact with his agent or UFC matchmakers.
