Boston Celtics star Kristaps Porzingis predicts winner of UFC 307 main-event between Alex Pereira and Khalil Rountree with a single emoji

Boston Celtics power forward and center Kristaps Porzingis recently came clean on who he thinks would win the UFC 307 main event. However, instead of typing out the entire name, Porzingis used his wits to clarify his choice with a single emoji.

UFC 307, the 11th UFC PPV of this year will feature the current light heavyweight champ Alex Pereira locking horns with Khalil Rountree Jr. in the main event. Replying to a tweet by Porzingis, Spinnin Backfist asked for his thoughts about the results of the UFC 307 main event.

The 29-year-old's reply revealed he would put his money on the reigning champ for the UFC 307 main event. However, he clarified his choice with the 'stone-face' emoji, which to the MMA community, is equivalent to Pereira. Porzingis replied:

"🗿"

The Boston Celtics star's reply indicates that he actively keeps an eye on UFC affairs. On the contrary, there are people in the UFC who follow him and celebrate his victories.
