That's one of the realest interactions I've ever seen on this show, and I've been a fan for a while! Too many people are afraid to talk about their insecurities.

Followed him since the Anders fight, and started to look up to him when I dove more into his story. He’s a rare individual, and I hope he keeps getting wins in incredible fashion 🙏🏽. But win or lose, I’m riding with him

Dude me too that's why I started plus I don't know when I started I got the bypass without up but I remember watching that Atlanta I think it's the Atlanta one with Izzy and gas line which is followed by Max and Dustin know? 226/236 anyway? I guess that was what four years ago so he said he's been a nurse for 12 years and I feel like I missed so much but in that light heavyweight match in that shutout against your boy Anders, who I like a lot, I mean I'll never forget sound of a slapping thuds made by those kicks by Khalil and just making his punches so effective that he knocked down Eric several times I mean you could literally call that a shutout could have been stopped by the corner or the ref meeting khalil's eyes towards the end like they really but unlike those Anya is getting his ass kicked in the fifth round Roundtree just kept doing his own thing and against the strong man like Anders experience he has sure that's exactly what he should have done and I just became a freaking huge Roundtree fan and made me want to go to Thailand I still do LOL only, because I saw you wrote the anders fighting same here and I was really enamored by his interview last night, thanks man

It wrong cuz it is about you man that's exact reason why he did what he did last night bro and he did it again today with Ariel I hate to say it you're wrong man he did that for you bro, he's no saint he's not like dying on the cross but man he's still dealing with his issues, don't think he's done it's a lifetime of work and I am just going to say I can understand where you both are coming from not from a weight perspective from other angle and let me tell you one last time that was for you and other people much more than was for him however he is going to benefit from that because it's going to make him feel like a million bucks once he stops feeling stupid for speaking up. And when the negative thoughts and ego to go away, cuz that's all the ego does is tell us where dumb or stupid for speaking up right? For that which will be soon I hope, he's going to really feel proud and you're going to watch him growgrow even more cuz if he doesn't and you don't know.. another truth is that it was for you and it'll benefit that good man more then his help benefited you.. I don't have a problem with food or weight per say although I can but let's just say I get it elsewhere. PS guess what you get to carry that message on you get two-and-a-half too if it helps you do pass it on it'll make you feel like he feels which is full whole and useful God bless you and please, do what he says man I'm going to do it I'm going to try to love myself a lot more that's that's the deal I got to pay attention to what he said that message can we from anybody you guys it's not just about overweight people that's the thing people don't understand I'm glad I do and I hope you do to God bless

Khalil has been one of my favorite fighter since I saw him in tuf. I’ve seen every single one of his ufc fights and it’s awesome to see him grow as a fighter as well as a person who everyone can look up to. He’s been a killer since the beginning but it’s cool how everyone is getting to see how great of a guy he is

The world needs more real ones like Khali 💯

Khalil just when I thought I couldn't love watching your journey from the little view we get in fan land.. you have a moment of gargantuan vulnerability and shock the mma world. That is a beautiful show of strength and to those confused, vulnerability isn't a weakness it's quiet the opposite. Again, thrilled about your journey being in the open and I hope it continues good sir. Ty

Khalil is truth man!!! Just seeing someone keeping it completely 1000% real in this mma game is so refreshing!!

This man is a gem within this sport and is as real as it gets. Love his messages and what he's about.

Khalil is first ufc fighter to bring soccer body kick. And it legit. Hopefully we see more of that. Khalil is growing as a MMA fighter

Loving his rise and goal to inspire. Respect.

Man been follwing him since the ultimate fighter and wow what a journey. Learned so much about himself and life in those years and have moved around and switched mma style multiple times as well, always interesting to see what he bring to the octagon, and now im also gonna look forward to listening his post fight interviews. What a dude. Respect is huge! Very wholesome moment around the 53 minute mark

wow what a dope human being and great interview ariel salute

This man comes from a place that hurts. You know he was on the brink of death rose up, the way he expresses himself. And definitely.in the way he fights so passionately. Last time he finished a guy with a leg breaking pisao and then this time with that devastating ground kick. He's fighting for his life literally! Respect.

I normally take my pup out for 5-7 minutes in the am...found myself outside walking with him for 40 minutes, listening and relating to Khalil. His emotions always stood out to me in his TUF season. I'm always glad to hear more bits and pieces of the story. Always wishing all the best, including you Khalil even though you won't see this. We all feel unheard, especially when thrown into such a diverse environment. I hear your story, I see the emotion, and it motivates me more than that money motivation crap. This man is a true gentleman and his father would be proud. I hope to hear some (more) Khalil Rountree music hits in the future, and not just Khalil hits in the octagon🙏🎵. I plan to get vip for the next event your at, I need to have you sign my first piece of musical equipment🙏

Work har every day. I’m a Rountree fan for sure man he rocks!

God only selects his greatest warriors for the hardest battles. Keep up the good fight. Never give up on yourself and we're saved by grace through faith.

Super cool guy. Thank you for putting yourself out there. That post fight interview hit me hard because I’m basically in that mindset now with nothing but suicide on my mind.

When you guys got to see again I can't remember which UFC it was and then it's the one where Gastelum and is he fought in the co-main and Max and Holloway the main event oddly enough, but yeah if you're not as tough as an eryk Anders ya boi Anders, but not only do you not get shutout you get knocked out and Khalil doesn't get to Showcase like you did that beautiful night oh, so you guys should check that one out man if you have Fight Pass or maybe you can find it elsewhere, if so let me know my TV collapsed in the one I have is a smart TV and it won't let me download apps so I have been without my Fight Pass for about 6 months now sucks when you watch it all the time and don't have it.

There’s a wide array of way fighters can get paid by the UFC. It’s about how you structure your contract. For example, Tony Ferguson at one point had a Show purse, $5,000 to win and a Finish bonus…

I was always butt’hurt Khalil dispatched of Gökan Saki but I always kinda liked him….this interview won me over. I love that Ariel provides a platform for athletes to speak what’s on their minds rather than generic questions with flair like The “Shmo”🙄😂

Is this the same guy who pulled a dirty move on Strickland during sparring ?

A weirder guy than I even imagined. Reminds of a depressed Beneil. No disrespect to Khalil, but man…

I think I see why Strickland doesn't like him. Takes himself seriously and long winded. But, not the worst thing you can say about a person.

My nickname is smiley all my homies call me smiley its cuz im always stoned 🤣🤣from ganjia the marijuana 🤣
