Khalil Rountree JR’s coach John Wood expects a violent fight for his student against Jiri Prochazka on UFC 320.
Tonight Khalil Rountree JR will go against each other with Jiri Prochazka. If he is able to pick up the victory and to do it in a decisive way, there is an excellent chance that he will earn a chance on Magomed Ankalaev or Alex Pereira for the UFC Light Heavyweight Championship.

In recent years, Rountree JR has really proven that he is an elite slightly heavyweight – and he hopes to maintain that trend. PrOCHAZKA is an incredibly difficult opponent to face as we know, after we have proven that his 5-2 UFC record with his only defeats against Alex Pereira is coming.
In a recent interview, the aforementioned John Wood gave his opinion about Rountree JR vs PrOCHAZKA.
Wood’s view of the battle of Rountree JR with Procazka
“It is a double -edged sword if you fight like that,” Wood told MMA Fighting. “You are going to win a lot of fights because of that style, but you will also lose fighting because of that style. I think this is a phenomenal matchup for us. I think it will be a great fight.
“As a fan it is great, but as a coach I love it. You have a crazy weird guy with that crazy weird stuff and it opens you, and I think it really plays in our advantage.”
“I think it will be violent, bloody,” Wood said. “Nothing in my bones tells me that it is going three rounds. There is no thinking process, no world I go where I think it is going to a decision.” If so, they will be very damaged.
