UFC 307: Pereira vs Rountree Jr. Main Card Results
Kayla Harrison defeats Kelten Vieira by unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 29-28)
Kayla Harrison picked up her second UFC win in as many starts to seemingly punch her ticket to a championship opportunity next time out, but it was far more difficult than many anticipated, as Ketlen Vieira gave her all she could handle.
The two-time Olympic gold medalist finished the first in mount after bulldozing Vieira to the canvas, but the Brazilian did well to remain upright throughout the second, crashing home a couple heavy shots that lumped up and opened up Harrison. But in the third, the American Top Team representative was once again able to get Vieira to the floor, doing well to keep her shoulders stapled to the mat, dominating the action through to the final horn.

Roman Dolidze Post-Fight Interview | UFC 307
/
Midway through the first, Dolidze put Holland on the canvas, and he was able to keep him there for an extended period. When Holland looked to shift his hips late in the frame, Dolidze flowed with him and Holland appeared to pop a rib in the process. The Georgian stayed on him, worked to mount, and wrapped out the round raining down blows before the fight was halted in the corner.
Dolidze has now earned consecutive victories and won six of his last eight, building on his UFC 303 win over Anthony Smith with his effort here. The 36-year-old is a well-rounded, durable talent and a dark horse to continue to track in the middleweight ranks.

Mario Bautista Octagon Interview | UFC 307
/
The surging MMA Lab representative came out looking to take the fight to Aldo, offering a diverse array of attacks and good pressure, mixing in clinch work along the cage designed to wear out the 38-year-old icon. Though Aldo had some very good moments, especially in the second, the constant activity, unrelenting pressure, and grinding nature of Bautista’s attack was too effective.
All three judges scored the fight in favor of the 31-year-old Arizona-based bantamweight, who continued to show he’s an ascending name in the talent-rich 135-pound ranks that folks should be paying close attention to going forward.

This was a classic clash of styles through the first four rounds, with Pennington getting the better of things in the striking exchanges and Peña dominating when she was able to drag the fight to the canvas. It was a competitive battle at every turn between two evenly matched talents, and when the final horn sounded, you knew it was going to be close on the cards.
When the scores were read aloud, it was Peña that came out ahead, earning the split decision win after claiming the first three rounds on two of the three scorecards to rise to the top of the division for a second time.

Rountree Jr. landed the most impactful blows in each of the first two rounds, as his speed and operating from the southpaw stance seemed to slow the champion just a little. But as the fight progressed and Pereira got his range and timing, the mammoth Brazilian started to punish the Las Vegas native, busting him up, breaking him down, and putting him away along the fence in the waning moments of the fourth.

Khalil Rountree Jr. Octagon Interview | UFC 307
/
Pereira’s run in the UFC to this point has been largely unmatched, as “Poatan” is now 9-1 inside the Octagon, with title wins in two divisions and three successful title defenses in less than 200 days this year. Rountree Jr. deserves a ton of praise for his effort, but the Brazilian champion remains a menacing presence each and every time he steps into the cage.
