Result: Alex Pereira def. Khalil Rountree Jr. via 4th Round TKO (4:36)

Early on, Rountree Jr. had some success with his boxing, landing several big right hands and seemingly winning through two rounds and early in the third. Late in the third round, it became clear that Pereira's damage was mounting, and Rountree Jr. was in real trouble. The fourth round saw Pereira dismantle a broken but tough Rountree Jr., eventually breaking him down late in the round to get the stoppage and defend the belt.
