UFC fighter makes opponent flinch by screaming in his face during staredown

UFC light heavyweight Khalil Rountree Jr. (8-3, 1 NC) will face off against Ion Cutelaba (14-3, 1 NC) in Copenhagen on Saturday, and Cutelaba tried to get into his opponent’s head during their face-off at weigh-ins on the eve of the bout.

Cutelaba, nicknamed “The Hulk,” walked up to Rountree and screamed in his face, which caused Rountree to pull his head back and crack a smile.

Cutelaba is a +100 underdog at UFC Copenhagen, per BetMGM.
