Romero has some heavy elbows, he finished Machida with two or three elbows unlike Jones who can throw 100 elbows per fight but still not able to KO his opps.
I love how Romero basically never wrestles and just lets his opponent spend energy on getting the TD to then just casually stand up again. Dude is so good at preserving energy that sometimes he just stops fighting all together and just chills in the ring until he feels like throwing something.
I noticed that, too. Brunson´s TD´s look tiring, while Romero is so loose and putting such little effort on his takedown attempts. He is so light on his feet and even while engaging. 2:30 he straight up drop sprawls just to make Brunson carry his weight.
You may be right... but I have a feeling he worked it to his advantage... maybe he could take such big shots cuz his neck was fused.... never know... and he had mad head movement too at times... noone knew about his neck being fused until it was mentioned...so he did pretty well how he was...
@@fredp1983That’s a disadvantage. When your neck is “fused” you’re supposed to avoid aggravating it. Doctor’s told him he shouldn’t fight again, or risk full paralysis or death. Dude is a unit.
Love how Romero stopped focusing on his face and went to the body instead. That could've gotten uglier than it looked UPDATE: this has shown me that the ref should've been fired for the late stoppage and elbows, utilized properly, are the most lethal part of your body.
@@whatdapakq Quite sure that helps him taking clean punches and kicks to the head.There is no whiplash when he gets hits, at all.He is the real Iron Man!
You can see @4:07 Yoel realize how bad brunson started leaking after those elbows to the head and decided to wear & tear the body instead to prevent further damage to the face. What a gentleman what a savage!

Wow. Some fights you wish you watched live and not years later. This is one of them. The brutal elbow blows to the ribs just brought me back to the UFC Raw days
i dont think so. he conserves his energy a bit more is all. and his cardio is a bit worse. although he may have better skills. dont really get to see it when hes shelling for 99% of the fight then throwing an overhand like hes done his last couple fights.
So confusing how Brunson took down Romero multiple times but couldn't get Adesanya down. Maybe it's bc of his range and much better striking and distance control
@@jamesrt5352 yea I suppose Romero was being more aggressive and therefore managing distance less. But I think he's got to be a good defensive wrestler because he was a world champion in the sport!
The amazing thing about yoel is he’s looking to finish the fight every second of every round. His cardio is amazing to be able to continuously fight at a pace like that.
Cara gurizada. Pensa num posso de humildade é esse yoel Romero. Ele poderia ficar só atingido o rosto do Jhonson pois estava fácil fácil com ele ali no chão imobilizado. Mas enquanto o juiz não interrompia ele preferiu atingir apenas a linha de cintura pra diminuir os danos no aniversário q apesar de tudo é companheiro de profissão, um show de humildade e profissionalismo.

@@petrosbabinn1695 I mean lifted yoel up off the ground and slammed him at one point. Every time yoel shot in for a takedown it was like he ran into a brick wall. It's not like Brunson should be superior technically, Yoel is the one with a silver medal in the Olympics
@@TheMendo123 That medal was back in the 19th century I see no reason why Brunson couldn’t be the more technical wrestler. His legs were in the better position most of the time and he anticipated all of Romero’s trips.
@@TheMendo123 they have different backgrounds. Brunson wrestled for UNCP which is one of the best wrestling programs in the country. Division 2 but really underrated. Brunson excelled there. And he's an American wrestler which the style is more technical and isn't as power forward as guys who do freestyle only. Yoel got away with shooting blast doubles and being super strong but isn't as technical as someone like Brunson. They're really trained in 2 different wrestling styles. You basically have the international freestyle like your knows, then you have greco Roman, and then u have folk styles. Brunson wrestling is a blend of folk and freestyle. Thats basically college wrestling.
everyone forgets that Yoel has fused vertebrae in his neck. He cannot turn his head and this is probably the reason he avoids wrestling too. So it's incredible he survived that full force kick to back of head/neck area.
On the contrary, its actually probably why he CAN take ridiculous damage that would normally flatline others. His neck is fused so its practically like a head on an iron rod as opposed to having that bobblehead effect when someone gets hit in the head.

that ref must have had a million on Brunson winning. The hell was that late stoppage
Counted 14 full body power elbows at the end... No wonder he didn't stand up for the decision to be announced
That shit weren't right man
Fight back! Fight back! He sounded more like a father teaching his bullied son than he did a referee.
and the mouthpiece was gone for quite some time...
he might have damaged a good fighter he took 10 too many shots
“He ate all that shit!!” Lmfao
Gets me every time !
I thought he said that but it's gotta be shin right?
He said shin but I also thought it was shit at the time
He ate all that shin
It's crazy
But fr tho how tf did he not immediately go out
I miss Yoel Romero. He could not get the belt but what an exciting fighter.
The judges stole most of his fights
arguably could have in his last ufc fight
Same
He definitely had a few fighter cheated from him but the costa fight is probably the best mw war of all time.

I never understood why guys don't do this and just focus on the head. They miss dozens of punches while the body is just completely open
LOL, what a messed up conclusion. The blood on his face and mouth was from getting punched in the face, not from the elbows to his side.

If Yoel were able to fully utilize his grappling without risk of his neck I whole heartedly believe he would have been undisputed

No one thought even Derek, thought Holland would be stupid enough to go to the ground with Derek💀
Not prime Brunson and he didn't expect a striker to wrestle him.

Romero used very little energy on those Takedown attempts. Basically wanted to finesse them to the point of not even having to tense his muscles up.
