Is Romero the most explosive fighter in UFC history?

[mommas homeboy]

As far as a fighter who has the ability to suddenly, and without warning, viciously explode with speed and power, would you say Romero is the greatest?

The only other person I can think of who compares is Vitor in his prime.


And please don't try to turn this into a "Who is the MW GOAT?" thread because I'm strictly talking about the explosive factor.

Randleman, imo.

Prime, fully hydrated 205 Rumble smashes any version of Romero, Vitor, Manhoef, Randleman.......you name it.

The undisputed king of athleticism and explosiveness

Randleman smashes himself?

 

[The Witcher]

Manhoef, in more ways than one.

 

[Prince Nephilim]

No shit

 

[DarkneT]

It's Randleman but thanks for trying

 

[JoshR86]

He's not even that dark

Really?

He's super powerful, but I don't think he's as explosive as Romero.

Hard question. GSP could lunge at you and have you on your ass from 10 ft away before you could blink. Silva could knock you out and you would wake up with no idea what limb hit you. A bunch of lesser names have that explosiveness too. Machida could, Randleman, Evans, etc...

I think Rogan saying how explosive Yoel was a 100 or so times might have influenced some people.
