This. I absolutely hate Cuckhold.
Why are cubans allowed to compete in UFC but not in professional boxing? Or am I missing something?
They do both. Ortiz ?
Is it recent? I remember Mario Kindelan being one of the greatest amateur boxers, but he never went professional. I just thought it was something do with the boxers being from Cuba.
At Romero hammer fisting Rockholds leg.fecking sparked!!
Lights out dickhead!
wow
That second absolutely put him to sleep.
Rockhold didnt know where he was.

Merc'd!
Can't fault Rockhold for anything there. Romero just caught him.
I'm pretty sure I heard Romero scream SHORYUUUUUKEN.
Not such a good start for Rockhold in 2018.
Finished work late tonight.
Saw there were activity in this thread, so i searched for fights on ufc.com, could only find a friday card.
Which one was today ?

I hate romero just because of the 'soldier of god'-name, but as long as cockhold lost, i guess i'm happy

After he running upper cut dragon punched Rockhold who was basically out cold against the fence. He cornered him, and said "I LUH YUH LUKE, I LUH YUH" "IM THE WINNER ROCK BOY" then he kissed him. It was glorious.
He took his head CLEAAAAAN OFF !!!!
His boxing defense is pretty awful for a top level fighter though. He’s been caught here and vs Bisping and Branch was landing on him. If he goes up to 205 like has been suggested he’d struggle massively.
I hate to say it but you're missing something. One of the highest profile boxing fights last year involved a Cuban.
Rockhold's face as Romero was right in his face was also priceless.He's OK from distance, but the moment things get messy or there's a scramble, he's completely susceptible to overhand shots on both sides. He doesn't tuck his chin, or move his head or put his arms up - it's like a litany of errors that will keep getting him knocked out if he doesn't learn.
He talks about technique all the time, but hasn't got close to mastering the elements of boxing that will have him less likely to get sparked clean out.

Yeah I agree he hasn’t ever really addressed it it seems I dunno if it’s arrogance or naivity but he could of stopped last night from happening if he worked on it. He was doing alright until then as well and Romero would struggle as the fight went on, especially if he had a broken leg like he said.
Well there's clearly a blueprint for others to follow when it comes to Rockhold, so if he doesn't address it, he's going to find more fighters bursting in on him and then swinging for the fences on the inside knowing the probability one of them will connect on his exposed, non-moving head, is high.
He's a weird case alright, pretty much fantastic from distance, but gets worse and worse the closer his opponent gets to him.
He can't carry on so arrogantly whilst getting creamed in there, it just doesn't add up.
What was the score card for Hunt vs Blaydes? That first must have been close to a 10-8 as Blaydes was on dream street “god loves knockouts” version 2.0.
Also ha foook you Rockhold you tool. Had no intrest in that fight and watched it at x6. Gutted that my sky failed to tape the prelims so i’ll Try and find them again and that Mark Hunt light vs Asker. Someone put it right via murder, that was brutal.

fecking hell what a brutal K.O! Pretty funny that Rockhold will still get 30 percent of Romero's fight purse.
He should definitely not go up to 205.
I'm not a huge fan of Rockhold but the rules are a bit dodgy when a fighter misses weight.
Romero was 3lbs overweight, sure he didn't win the title but he now has a title fight next which doesn't really seem fair. That extra weight cut was sure to have a bearing on Rockhold.
Saying that I'm still glad he lost

He definitely shouldn't have gotten this fake interim belt, which is worthless in either case, but in terms of who should fight Whitaker next - it would be hard to now make a case for Rockhold to do so just because Romero didn't make weight.
Yea I agree. It's just, what stops someone purposely missing weight to have an advantage when they get to the fight?
I know he loses a portion of the fight purse but if you can gain a 5lb advantage and THEN get a title fight it would make it worth it
Rockhold looks like he's on the way out to me.
Lose one of his next two and he calls it quits imo. LHW is a pipe dream.

I'm pretty confident Rockhold will get the belt at some point. He's still in his prime fighting years and has one of the best ground games in the division. His striking is suspect but most MMA fighters have a weak spot in one form or another. Romero is 40 so I would expect this to be is final push towards the top. Its a shame that Gegard left as he has won his last 6 fights and would've surely infused the division with the right balance of competition it needs. Really bad move by the UFC to let him get away.
Romero is fecking awesome, I just wish he was younger and had more years ahead of him. Say what you will about him, he is exciting as anything you can see and is an all round intriguing figure in MMA. Something the UFC needs more of at the moment. Always has you on the edge of your seat. Makes you realize just how good Whittaker is. Hope Bobby can come back the same level he was at before.
Yes, it does the UFC no good that Romero is 40 and has been plagued by steroid charges. BTW...his physique still looks a bit too ripped (especially at age 40) so I wouldn't at all be shocked to learn he pisses hot in the coming weeks.
Oh yeah he’s definitely on something there’s no way he isn’t...guys looks ridiculous for someone 10-20 years younger than him let alone a 40 year old
Get in, Yoel! Sent Rockhold to destination fecked!
'I luh you maaaan!'
It's so weird how he was just able to stand there for what seems like a lifetime and talk to Rockhold. I'm sure he had good intentions but it's pretty disrespectful as well, just let the guy stand there on his own to try and collect his thoughts. I know Rockhold isn't massively popular on here but it just seems a bit out of order to me.
That was really strange. You could tell Rockhold's brain was completely scrambled too. Probably thinking "I'm sure I've seen this guy before. Who the hell is he?"
