yoel romero 5'9 (175cm) olympics stats
205 @ 5'10 isn't "massive". Mark Hunt cuts to 265 and is the same height. Yoel is at least 5'11.... Anyway, It's not his height, it's his ridiculously broad and bulky frame. Have a look at him in comparison to Rockhold after they've had all day to rehydrate. Rockhold is looking to compete at 205 next, so there's no WAY he walks around at 205, especially considering his long frame. Look at Yoel's bulkiness in comparison. There's no way either guy walks around at 205. Not a chance in the world.205 lbs lean at 5 foot 10 is massive. he is at best 210. nothing more than that. rockhold is only 205 and romero isnt much bigger than him.
this is confirmed by his manager.
5'9 - 5 '10
walks around 205. so probably enters the cage at around 200.
he will struggle at lhw. most weigh 215 - 225 at lhw.
he is still a beast though. he could do it but he wont beat dc, gus is 50 50. rest are all beatable barring jones who is banned.
Jan blahowicz would be a tough matchup imo as well.
Yeah Jan boxing up gus was amazing even though he lost the fight by gus wrestlefucking him lolJan has suspect TDD, if Yoel wanted to take him down I don't see him stopping that. But now that Rumble is gone, I think that Jan is the best striker at 205, and one of the best MMA strikers in the sport.

Alvarez isn't 41A world class wrestler that can’t cut 20 lbs to make 185? That is the dumbest I have ever heard.
Alvarez cuts 25-30 lbs, And at 155 lbs that is a much higher percentage.
interviewsWhat makes you think Eddie "CUTS" 25-30 pounds?
I am 41. I can cut 11 lbs of water with little effort. I am sure Romero has a bit more experience than I do.Alvarez isn't 41
Pretty sure you have done as many weight cuts as Romero. That takes a toll on your body, the more you cut, the harder it gets.I am 41. I can cut 11 lbs of water with little effort. I am sure Romero has a bit more experience than I do.
No. The more cuts, the easier it gets in my experience. I doubt I have done anywhere near as many weightcuts as Romero, but 20 lbs is not much for a pro fighter, and Romero should be one of the best at it, as he comes from high level wrestling (and he looks huge in the cage). And that is if he only cuts the last water. I am sure he can also diet down a few pounds in 10 weeks before he starts cutting water.Pretty sure you have done as many weight cuts as Romero. That takes a toll on your body, the more you cut, the harder it gets.
LOL, this is a complete lie! Anyone who has cut weight for a combat sport knows that cutting 15 lb of fluid, in a suana, for a few hours, is not difficult. Fuck, I go to a hot yoga class, and I lose 6 lb of water, in 1.5 hours just looking at all the girls' asses!walks around 205. so probably enters the cage at around 200.
no one beats dc except jones and maybe elite top 2 HWs. Do you honestly believe he can beat DC?I think he beats DC, but not Gus.
maybe. rockhold himself said he is 205 though. romero said he was 206 on mma hour. I can believe rockhold being 215 and romeo 210. jon jones fought dc weighing 218 in their second fight and neither are bigger than jones.205 @ 5'10 isn't "massive".

This would explain why he's been struggling with it. That can't be easy to do.So he cuts weight ... and height?
Men who do yoga lmao. Even though you do get to look at asses hmmmm.....
