That Romeo cracks me up with his speeches and his whole behavior.
He moves like the last boss of a video game and you can't predict what he's going to do.
RIP Rockhold, another brutal KO. That last uppercut though, Romeo picked up his head and smashed him.

Luke has a great frame/reach with a left high kick and the best grappling/gnp in the division, but no reliable way to get the fight to the mat

His sweeps are ok I guess, but he has no business standing up, and it's a shame he has almost no wrestling base

[Answer1o1]

Back to back KO's for Cuckhold. Goodnight UFC career



So now we run it back with Rob and Romero. Should be an interesting fight. Unless Romero vs USADA goes down first.



Lets go UFC press conf we'd like to hear Luke's excuse this time




here we go

no Yoel or Luke at presser. weak. The post fight pressers have gotten real gay lately.

Bring Dana back! He was the most entertaining of them all

[cheeseymeat]

it will be interesting to hear Luke's excuses this time

[BalkanKing]

[MinisterOfLust]

I can't believe the ref and security let him hold like that after a brutal KO

[DirtyDon123]

lol Yoel emotionally and psychologically dominated him with that kiss and embrace

Luke will rage about it for the rest of his life srs

Knocked him out then kissed him

Rockhold got a Cuban daddy now

[OntheClockNE]

And standing up...........well that's not even an option for Romero. Luke is clearly the better striker here.

[DrewDarden]

Fuking lol

That whole thing was so uncomfortable.

Romero may have s broken leg so he was taken to the hospital.

And the loser almost never does the post fight presser. I think Luke might be even less likely to do it given how salty (not to mention inarticulate) he is after a loss, or win for that matter.

I know he did it after the Bisping fight but maybe somebody told him not to do it again after getting verbally embarrassed lol.

Romero may have s broken leg

Yoel Romero did not break his leg last night, according to his team. Ge suffered a deep shin bruise in his right leg. He’s already out of the hospital.

Didn't want to break it up, waiting to see if there's any more action.

[Tuga88]

- knock opponent out
- proceed to pin him against the cage telling him to look in your eyes and saying how much you love him

Just LMAO. Yoel we love you too brah.

did you listen through it all brah?

[nonamewut]

Good, keep messing up UFC's plans.

Dana white must be red as a tomato with this whole mess.

Yoel gonna call out Bisping next. c u soon boiiii

hope he does, or if not, hope they match up bisping and rockhold again

[MMAMatty]

This shot reminded me a lot of the shot Brock Lesnar landed on Randy Couture that ko'd Randy.

The natural strength of these athletes is amazing.

That being said, props again to Yoel. He got it done, and got it done on short notice. Huge respect for that.

That's good news if they really give Romero another shot against Whitaker next. Maybe it means we won't have to wait too long for it.

Not back to back. He fought Branch in between.

[DrewDarden]

I was on the Luke Rockhold bandwagon long before he was in the UFC. There was a time when he was a killer, and people still think of him as that guy, however unwarranted in recent fights.

But the truth is that he hasn't been the same since the Machida fight. That fight with Weidman was the first sense that I got that something was wrong there. Maybe it was USADA? Maybe he really had antibiotics that were screwing him up like he said, because he was slower, much less dynamic, and chinny than he had previously been. But if that's true, he was on one seriously long course of antibiotics, because he looked basically the same for the Bisping and Branch fights as he did for the Weidman fight.

With all that said, I thought he looked like the old Rockhold last night. Those kicks were coming at a ridiculous speed, particularly for a middleweight.

But sometimes you just get caught. MMA is one hell of an unpredictable thing.

[DirtyDon123]

also if you look closely you can see the parting in his hair between his tuft at the front and his hair at the back, Yoel exposed the reapers work to the world that night, KTFO'd him then kissed him on TV...

Can any man recover from this????
