Romero gases. I actually thought jacare won. not mad at the outcome. But i had jacare winning the last two rounds. Yoel is a beast in the first. If luke can weather the storm in the first, i think hell pick him apart.

Yeah, dude is legit beastly so 1st round and probably most of round 2 he's incredible. If he can survive past 2, he's got a huge chance

I think Yoel knocks out Rockhold

^He didn't have a legendary title reign(yeah I said it, when the biggest win of your career is more about your opponent dancing that's telling), did not draw new eyes to the sport and isn't particularly exciting to watch = there is zero demand zero demand for a rematch. The only reason to do so is because for some reason zuffa want Romero to be 40 before he gets a title shot

Romero can't do 5 rounds. South Beach Jesus needs more cardio.

Romero gasses out so if it goes past the 2nd round I think Rockhold wins by decision or possibly a submission.
Another thing about Rockhold is that he does well against bigger opponents. Dude trains with Cormier and Velasquez, and rolls BJJ with Buchehca. He's used to larger fighters and more physically imposing fighters and isn't unfamiliar with that pressure. He's not as powerful but I think his precision could make up for it.
Good fight for sure!

The key to victory for Luke will be range and body kicks. He tried to break his foot on Weidman's ribs and that will zap Yomero. I'm torn on this fight because I like both fighters. Yomero would just need to sock Luke in the mouth and that's his key to winning.
But look like Luke trying to catch that Vitor fight to avenge his L

I like both fighters too (well Romero moreso) but you got to think of what's best for............the foreseeable future, romero's weaknesses are on display he's getting on in age and has suspect cardio. Who wants a champ that could possibly lose to a road runner like bisping?

Yeah I hear you I hope bisping loses I know he fights either next week or in January. But he's very close to a title shot
Yoel is very explosive and Luke can be slow to react which might lead to a flash ko. And Yoel has a great wrestling background and next level takedown defense so one of Luke's biggest tools won't be there.
That's said I'd take Luke 60 to 40.
