Text me a question for the show

In this episode, Fitz chats with UFC light heavyweight veteran Khalil Rountree.

Khalil has been in the UFC for years now after appearing on The Ultimate Fighter to get his shot with the promotion.

But what makes his story so impressive is about how he grew up.  After his father was murdered when he was 2 years old, Rountree developed into an introvert who saw the world as a dark place.  He got bullied in school and never had a sports background.

As a teenager, he started letting himself go and eventually weighed 300 pounds.  There were times when he contemplated suicide before his brother ultimately got him into MMA after he watched The Ultimate Fighter.
