When Will Yoel Retire?

As long as he doesn't get Ko'd in a row, doubt the guy is going to leave anytime soon.

Yoel stayed competitive. There are many cubans who look like him and don't necessarily even do sports. My noting him looking like that at young age is a very telling factor why he was able to stay competitive at the same weight class for such a long time. He may of added muscles, maybe his body was telling him to get bigger with the amount of training he does and genetics he has, but he always went back to his 84kg, making his body last much longer at such a weight than when he would be big. He has incredible control over his body, and that means he stayed the way he is for very long time and didn't have some muscle groups expands overnight and make him lose control over his body due fucked proportions and abilities of unatural muscles.

Either some super secret roids he is using all his life to get past all the testing he has had and maintain the same looking body, or he is naturally gifted in this regard.

Only time will tell
