“I can’t do what I did 20 years ago,” Romero said.
Still, the title challenger has gotten some help on how to maximize his work in the cage. A trip to Albuquerque, N.M., put him in touch with MMA masterminds Greg Jackson and Mike Winkeljohn. It also got him on the mats with ex-champ Jon Jones, who taught him now to marshal his energy for long fights.
“I saw something,” he said. “(Jackson and Winkeljohn) controlled my attacks – when I should attack. I learned that from Jon.”
“I’m never worried about five rounds, because I train every day,” he said. “You have to be worried if you know you don’t have the gas in that gas tank.”
