I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't want to see it

Yoel would light DC up like a nice Cuban cigar.

Win or lose id love to see Yoel vs Dc, Gus, Volkan

Those should be his final fights.

I dont have much interest in seeing his last fights be against KG or a whittaker trillogy

 

[Yari]

That would be a sick fight. Really sucks these guys arent going to be around much longer.

 

[C0NCH3TO]

Dc gets him tired in 2 rounds and chokes him out.

 

[HUGHPHUG]

Love to see it personally, never gonna happen though, events will not conspire this way

 

[SpiderCrawl]

Yoel by late KO.

They're actually fairly close to the same height. DC is thicker but has about 40lbs of fat on Yoel.

 

[shortlefthook]

I'm cuban and a huge yoel fan but DC would beat him it's a bad matchup.
DC is durable enough to force yoel to work at a rate he's not comfortable with and he would get subbed or tkod late while DC is on top of a gassed romero

I was daydreaming about potential intriguing matchup and this was on the shortlist.

DC puts his lights out. There's a reason Yoel went to 185 after getting his shit pushed in by Rafael Cavalcante.

 

[Flboycanscrap2]

DC facing a better athlete than himself is bad news for DC. They are the same height, Yoel has a bigger reach, and is holding onto a hell of a lot more muscle.

Yoel is so damn dangerous. DC has to grind the gas out of him in the first couple rounds or he could get posterized.

 

[My name is]

I'd like to see it

 

[Klippy]

I might go with DC. Yoel's cardio isn't very good.

 

[ImNotSurpisedDonks!]

Yoel would light DC up like a nice Cuban cigar.

Wait, didn't Yoel just get outwrestled by a a one legged Australian kick boxer?

 

[bandresb]

The only thing close to Jon Jones headkick has been Romero's knee to Weidman's skull. Another one of those and DC might be finished for the second time. I'd like to see it!

 

[Chad W]

I'd be down to see it if Yoel beats Whittaker and DC loses to Stipe. Who else is there at LHW? rematch with Gus? Jones isn't coming back anytime soon...

DC/Yoel is as intriguing as a fight there could be made at LHW. Of course this is only if Yoel gets the belt which I'm not predicting to happen...plus if he did I'd love to see Yoel/Kelvin happen next

 

[FrontNakedChoke]

Yoel knocks him out.

 

[Gabe]

Yoel couldn't keep up with DCs pace.
