"The War Horse". That's what they call Khalil Rountree Jr., and is ranked #5 at UFC light heavyweight — close enough to smell the title, dangerous enough that champions don't say his name too loudly.
This is power striking with numbers behind it — 10 KO/TKO wins, 3.88 significant strikes landed per minute. Opponents don't get outpointed so much as dismantled. Add the southpaw stance and a 76.5" reach, and the puzzle gets harder still.
The last fight went to Jiří Procházka (KO/TKO (Punches) R3) — a setback, and the interesting question is always what a fighter does with one.
He's 36 now. Fighters at this stage aren't building toward something; they're spending what's left, and that usually makes for the best fights.
