Not only did Khalil Rountree fall short in the Ultimate Fighter light heavyweight finale but he may well be grounded for two weeks too.
In bizarre scenes at the TUF 23 finale, Rountree appeared to shout at his mother to ‘shut up’ midway through his competition decider against Andrew Sanchez.
I thought I was hearing things but it certainly seems that Rountree was shouting at his mother to shut up #TUFFinale pic.twitter.com/m9Lgb8SHjq

After being dominated on the ground, Rountree clearly didn’t appreciate his mom’s advice from the crowd and he made no secret of letting her know.
Sanchez took a routine decision over Rountree in the end and we don’t think Mommy Rountree is going to get a call-up to corner ‘The War Horse’ any time soon.
