Whitaker kicked him flush in the dome and Romero took it like nothing dude is a damn tank.

Also his composure while tired was incredible once he started coming forward and letting his hands go He was repeatedly hurting Whitaker with ease.

Hope a 3rd fight happens because those two have unfinished business and I doubt Whitaker wants to be remembered as having a robbery win after being knocked around the cage and wobbled left in right during the 2nd half of the fight
 
That kick didn't have much on it, Rogan overcalled it IMHO.
 
Yeah when one guy beats another guy twice you need a third fight just to make sure

Usually I'd be against it so I see what you are saying, however the second fight could have gone either way and Whittaker looked a little bad in winning / retaining his title while taking a beating like that. It's not as clear cut as your sarcasm suggests.
 
Rockhold said, that it felt like he fought man made out of steel.
When he eats the shot's from Whitaker, it really looked like that.

Whatever you do, make sure you ignore the fact that Romero didn’t make weight. And still lost.

Yeah those 0,2 lbs were the reason he knocked Whitaker around like a little kid lmao.
 
Yea, both fights were very close, gotta give props to both men.

Missed weight or not, the last fight is very controversial, and I think alot of objective ppl wouldve made it a draw. So there is SOME reason to want a 3rd fight, but fat s 2-0 doesnt warrnt an immediate rematch. Imo, 1, 2 wins for yoel tho, a third fight is still one you can sell, and wed want to see
 
Yeah, Romero took the shots well. That was an awesome fight.

Wasnt a robbery. He won 1,2,4 and Romero won 3 and 5. Thats 48/47. If round 5 was 10-8 its a draw. Watch the 4th again.
 
He has got that A-level Olympic composure. I thought he was going to gas after seeing him breath heavily in the corner between the 2nd and 3rd round but the guy knows how to use his energy.

Thats what happens when you break your strong hand in the first round.
People are underestimating that, just think of how much that effects a fighter, your primary weapon is gone.

But I understand another fight would be another great fight and could go either way, Rob keeps injuring himself.

Yea you can just see that when Whitaker landed it was like he was kicking a wall
 
Romero can take a shot...thats for sure...

We have to give Feijao credit for knocking him out flat...
 
Even though it's from the first fight, how the hell did Romero survive this knee?

It reminds me of that one Superman/Hulk crossover where Hulk literally couldn't do shit to Superman, despite punching the shit out of Supes.

Pre-Crisis Romero.
 
A third fight might eventually (and unfortunately) happen. We don't need to rush it.

Fuck are you bitter that grandma didn't wipe your ass this morning and make you a bagel?

We have a 'by the book' clean as a whistle motherfucker here folks, don't even try stealing anything or he'll tell Mommy.

Guys like you annoy the fuck out of me. Let's keep yapping about that 0.2 fucking pounds without talking about the fight itself, which was fantastic, forget about the 0.2 pounds, shit happens, get off your high horse, live a little, and shut up man.

A third fight is warranted, give Yoel one more shot lol.
