romero's walk around weight and real height confirmed

Yeah I'm gonna call bullshit on Yoel Romero "walking around" at 205.

#1 bullshit.
 
Lmfao u never trained with whittaker just stfu. Hes 6ft like me
I don't really need to prove myself to an internet hero like you.

Look at my post history, especially going back to 2011 - 14. I was training in one of the most prominent Brisbane gyms with 3 UFC fighters (who've since been cut) prior to their stints in the big league and TUF. Whittaker trained there before his second last fight prior to TUF. Like I give a shit if you believe me.

And you saying he's 6ft like you you (just had to put that in there, huh?), you've agreeing with my point anyway. Dummy.
 
If he weighs 205 why is the cut to 185 any issue? Guy's at 155 come into fight week with a bigger gap.
mate, you got to remember he is 41 now. It's much harder to cut those last few pounds given his age and the fact that he has perennially cut weight during his entire professional career. It has to catch up at some point and unfortunately its taking its toll at the wrong time for the poor beast romero.
 
he doesnt cut just 20 to get to 185 lol

dudes probably 220
 
A 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.
I was thinking the same thing. He should be able to cut that much in a week if he wanted to. That should be one of the easiest weight cuts possible. Im not buying it. If hes 5'10" with that muscle, Id guess 220ish, if not more
 
He wont struggle because he is a freakazoid literal once in a lifetime athlete

He’s not 5’10 225 at sub 10 percent bodyfat, prime Arnold is max 6’1, 235 pounds circa 7 percent after all.
 
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.

Well he lied, he was 208lbs against Costa so i think he walks around at 211 more
 
Yoel Romero is not 5'9", and does not look 5'9". Hector Lombard is 5'9".

Romero looks like a legit 6'0". You've got to have an eye for proportions.

Kawa is trying to downplay his height to throw shade on any pressure for Yoel to move up a weight class, which makes sense. You can tell this because he's boosting JJ's height up to 6'5", when he's marked as 6'4". Although TBH, guys that tall are harder to judge, so maybe he is.
Jon's mugshot says he's 6'5, and 5'9 or 5'10 for Yoel seems about right as well.
 
Old thread, but csac released his in cage weight and it was 207lbs
 
I doubt believe that considering Whittaker walks around at 220.

I'd say Romero is closer to 220 then 200.

I believe the height though. Most in the UFC give themselves 1-2 inches.

What makes you think Eddie "CUTS" 25-30 pounds?
Eddie himself said he's normally 185 pounds. He said they'd have to cut his left leg off to make 145.
 
You guys gotta realize that very few fighters are 100% honest about their weight. Yoel is not one of them lol.
 
Can people fuck off with this "walk around weight". Fight shape weight is all that matters and Gus does NOT weigh 240LB on fight night
i somewhat agree with you, the term walkaround weight should be completely eliminated from ppl vocabulary. guys who fight at 155 can balloon up to 250 and can be considered "walk around weight". it literally can range from 10- 100 pounds from where they actually fight at, cause there is no standard for it.

EDIT: wow, i got trolled by this old thread.

FOOK ME
