Regarding Yoel Romero and cheating

[Irishwhiskey119]

The majority of MMA fans are morons. Another thread proving it.

Naw.. still a cheater. Good fighter, but uses dirty tactics to recover and replenish that gas tank.

And the people you also accused of being "users".. come on man.. Rockhold? Cormier?? Please.

How naive are you to believe Rockhold and Cormier, who at the top of the game dont use? Cormier is a former Olympic athlete who is 37 years old. You think he was clean in the Olympics as well? Rockhold looks soft post-USADA just like Weidman.

It is possible he didn't know what was in the sup but as anyone that has been on ibutamoren for any amount of time; you know you are on something. There is no way a normally fit person does not know they are on something when taking ibutamoren.

He is a very religious man. Maybe he thought God was giving him extra strength and motivation.

Everything else in your post is just conspiracy theories.

A 200lb pro MMA fighter who trains 2x3 hour sessions per day, burns off circa 500-600 calories per hour, plus a 40-45 calories per kg of bodyweight per day, needs 7000 calories per day intake just to maintain bodyweight. With a basic 35% protein intake, that equates to 600+ grams of protein per day, just to maintain muscle mass (not including any legal supplements to stop muscle depletion)

Now i'm not saying everyone is on steroids....

Who the fuck calculates protein as a percentage of calories?
Every nutritionist who knows what they're doing bases protein on bodyweight.

A 200lb man of muscle needs more protein than a 200lb flabby gentleman. That's like using BMI to calculate protein intake.
Maybe shit has changed since I was into bodybuilding and nutrition, circa 1992 -2005, but pretty much every bodybuilder and athlete used
a basic 50-35-15 split as a guide to their nutrition. Everyone from Lee Haney, Mike Mentzer, Dorian Yates through to boxers, pro athletes, sprinters, rugby players etc
used that exact split as a basic guide. Maybe i'm wrong.

I am a huge Cormier fan but he without Jones there of course he at the top of the competition. His closest match up where he is at is at is Rumble and that's punchers chance. Look man, you can't come in here claiming that Yoel should be exempt but then use others as an example without any proof. Cormier ever been popped? Naw. Yoel got a suspension but that was all taken as a mistake. Which is fine. However, Yoel is a cheat in the octagon. It isn't his first time sitting on the bench extra to recover, regardless of if Tim grabbed in his gloves or not. What about the fight with Chris? Got a silly excuse for that too? Or is it cool to pour more water on your boy so he can sit longer and not bounce around? Yeah he won, but he was losing that gas. And he has lost breathe in multiple fights.

Oh and because athletes are at the top of their game now it's just because they are cheats. USADA got you guys mind boggled.

You don't just feel amazing you have highs and lows, when it kicks in and your body starts surging HGH and IGF-1 your hunger is ridiculously through the roof, start getting hot flashes and sweating. You can wake up all the time due to the rush of HGH and have regular pins and needles feeling that won't shift throughout the day among many other side effects.

There is no way he would not know he was on something. This reply from you shows you are just trolling now.

I am not even saying I particularly dislike the guy, he is an incredible fighter to watch and a great character but he got caught cheating and got lucky with just 6 months suspension. Still had an unfair advantage.

Maybe he attributed the lows to the devil testing him.

I spesifically said in the OP that Yoel is also using, just like everyone else. Even if Cormier hasn't been busted he is still using. He is a 220lbs 37 year old man.

Eddie Alvarez also poured water on himself on the same night on the same fucking card.

But didn't sit after the bell. Was up and ready. And Cormier has been big his whole life. So you want to play genetics? I know plenty of wrestlers who all their life have been big because of the sport. He's been doing wrestling for what, all his life? Lel at the logic at his weight and age. If that's the case then Yoel is off the wall on more then whatever because he's 39 and has the body of a damn god with reflex as well. DC look like Yoel? Move like Yoel? DC is slowing down with time and it shows, that's the product of being a user?

Are you even an athlete?

Do you honestly believe DC is natural and that he is the same genetic freak as Yoel? You cannot compare the two. DC is bigger, automatically that means he will not be as athletic. The smaller you are, the quicker, faster reflexes you have. Brock Lesnar is a genetic freak, but he also uses. I cannot believe how naive you are in thinking DC is Natural.

Do you even train at all? BJJ, wrestling? Do you even read up on hormones, hgh, insulin and the natural human potential? Reason I'm asking is because you get a good sense and idea on who is on something or not.

 

[mjfan23]

Did not read it all but agree in general Romero gets hated on too much and Kennedy is scum

I train but I wouldn't say I am an athlete. I wrestled in high school. I know what people look like in the wrestling room. And bjj? No one is a big man in my classes, more tall and lanky. Compare DC to some other wrestlers on the Olympic team. Any of them. Please do. Note what they look like. How huge they are, how defined they are. DC has never looked like that. I didn't compare them as in being a "genetic freak". But genetics are genetics. DC does not have the look, or show the results of being a user. Not even close. And Yoel is older and walks around the same weight DC does MAYBE even heavier when not in camp or training. I could care less at this point what you say, DC is natural. There are a lot of fighters you could of posted and I wouldn't of even made an argument. But besides DC being large (and short mind you) you have no sufficient argument at all for why you think he is a user.

Never popped. Looks natural. Is aging progressively with no signs of holding up in the future. Natural.

Yet we have Yoel who is OLDER and besides his cardio has shown no signs of slowing down or showing signs of age. Also has already been popped for being a cheat. Sorry, but not sorry. Yoel cheats in the octagon and I wouldn't be surprised if caught on another substance in the future.

Truly amazing how naive the general public really is.

It's like you're a year late for the discussion...

Re-read everything you said in here in 10 years when you become an adult. I expect an apology in my inbox afterwards.

 

[chinarice]

Yoel Romero........ the only man on Sherdog that constantly has guys defending his cheaty cheaterton tactics.

Hilarious! ohhh....... and racist!

 

[Shaddows]

He is 39 years old and is an absolute freak of an athlete and a genetic anomaly. The way his torso, hips and especially neck/head area is not of a normal human being.

People seem to accuse him of acai use, and he most definitely uses. Just like everyone else.
If you really think Jacare, Rockhold, Henderson, Jones, Cormier or even Bisping is not using then you are a naive person. The difference here is just pure genetics.


Also, to address something regarding the whole Tim Kennedy fight

If you go back and watch the fight against Tim Kennedy, Yoel won round 1 and was winning all of round 2, Yoel was landing & Kennedy couldn't touch him, right up until Kennedy illegally grabbed inside Yoel's glove at the final seconds of round 2 to finally land some shots on him. Under no circumstances in unified rules is it allowed to grab inside the glove to get an unfair advantage and almost TKOing your opponent. Yoel wouldnt have been on the stool in the first place. If anyone cheated it was Tim.

rule #16, subsections D & G
http://www.ufc.com/discover/sport/rules-and-regulations

''If an injury sustained during competition as a result of an intentional foul, as determined by the referee, causes the injured contestant to beunable to continue at a subsequent point in the contest, the injured contestant shall win by technical decision, if he or she is ahead on the scorecards. If the injured contestant is even or behind on the score cards at the time of stoppage, the outcome of the bout shall be declared a technicaldraw.''

They usually let unintetinal things go, but this does not look unintentional to me

Yet, has a minute extra rest (while groin strikes get up to 5 minutes) comes back and finishes Kennedy who is one of the toughest guys to finish in the division

Romero has the most salty haters out of all fighters. They're a mixture of American patriotards who don't like Cuba, racists, SJWs and MMA purists who can't stand the fact that an A-level athlete tools their favorite technical fighters, confirming the long established truth that MMA is a sport for C-level athletes that can't handle A-level athleticism.

No other fighter got as much hate for "cheating", in fact it's not even named cheating when other fighters do it. Fighters constantly bend the rules, they grab the fence, eye poke (something Romero never did for example), grab the shorts of the opponent, grab the gloves, try to take time off any way possible, deliberately spitting out mouthguards (Bisping vs Anderson), turn their back against their opponents etc. yet besides Romero is labeled a "cheater" because of it, not even Jon Jones and Travis Browne. Machida got busted for over the counter thing, no one bitches about it, Frank Mir busted for steroids - no one cares. Cro Cop took steroids - no one cares. Hendo is a "legend" here yet was roided to the extent which is even hardly humanly possible for the most of his career. Vitor also gets much more love than Romero. Romero gets busted for tainted supplement, gets cleared and USADA had to practically apologize on their knees and yet he's a "cheater".

#ynuevo

please, stop your self-pity.

Vitor gets plenty hate. Actually, way more than Yoel.
Jon as well.

Machida did not cheat. he POSTED on his form he was using and got 18 months for it.
Yoel got caught and got only 6 months.

But beyond that, you are blatantly being an hypocrite.
Because that's not the only fight and the only controversy with him.

On Weidman fight, he threw water on himself.
On Jacare fight, he grabbed the fence.
On Tim fight, he stayed on stool.

Every fight he does something. In every fight, there's some sort of controversy.

I never accused him of anything, and I am a guy who generally defend fighters in here.
But you can't claim he is so pure when there are plenty of things happening in every fight with him.

It is kind of like Toquinho.
Does he hold his submissions too long? No. But it is obvious it is much longer than most everyone. And after everything, if it keeps happening, at some point you have to alow that maybe he is not putting the effort into fighting within the rules.

 

[Only Here for Attachments]

Why would an SJW hate on a person-of-color like Romero? Wouldn't they be overjoyed that he's knocking out white, heterosexual, cis-gender men (especially a "heartless killer" of the evil American military like Kennedy)?

 

[OrigFan255]

Yoel is a soldier and God told him to decapitate Chris "The Atheist" Weidman.

Keep up the good work Yoel!
