Yoel is one of the strongest "what ifs" cases for me. Had he entered the sport even ten years earlier... Imagine...
Yeah we'd have seen the first death in the ufc lol
He's the Arvydas Sabonis of MMA
Honestly probably would’ve made easy work of Spider Silva
It's not good to think about it like that. If Yoel started sooner; his body would also have a lot more mileage on it that it does now, so even if he was more skilled, the blow to his chin and athleticism would have been felt by now.
Yoel and Daniel Cormier are the ones i wish began sooner
You can tell Joe really likes doing the impression of Yoel. It's like he did it once and was like "hey, not bad" so he did it 4 more times.
HAhah and they way he looked at Masvidal the last time like "I really got this"
@@dtmsportsrehab6637 Hes done that impression to many times to count. He first did it when referring to Yoels call out of Bisping on the podcast.
@@Cobra85291 ?
Typical standup comedians. You give them a compliment once and they start doing it over and over again.
He isnt a comedian bro. Nobody rates him comedic wise. He just has a fanbase.
Joe rogan's impression of yoel is hilarious 😂😂
True😂
😂
you should see michael bispings😂
Joe is in love lol.
He should try his hand at standup
This guy RIGHT NOW is getting ready to fight for the Bellator World Title. He STILL isn't done at all! This guy will forever be one of the most talented human beings to walk the face of the earth. God really did bless him with special physical gifts.
I think romero win against vadim idk I just feeling it
I wouldnt be suprised if he moves onto BKFC after bellator aswell.
@@likbingchang1945 ehh maybe but I think vadim takes it but if Yoel somehow pulls it off would be amazing.
@@likbingchang1945 Yoel got dominated easily by Phil Davis, Vadim is going to make it look easier
@@lennaymaboyyy4848 depends on Romero's gameplan, If Phil got caught by Romero's punch and it's all over for him and Phil got lucky that he win but I kinda excited for vadim vs yoel
Not just a freak athlete but a very aware human being
He’s on some crazy ped’s. If u think yoel is all natural, your just naive 😂
“The people pay the people pay pay the people people pay pay per view” I hope someone gets the reference
@@EE-ie9gm you can be on peds and still be a freak athlete
@@EE-ie9gm odd how Yoel is one of a kind and you cant find others guys his age doing the things he does lol yes he is roided but he is skilled and works hard im sure your the type to think roids make you a good fighter or that strong lol you still gotta work but he def is not top tier due to peds he is just really good mid
@@EE-ie9gm nah I don’t think he’s on Peds currently,, but during the Cuban programs as a kid they definitely fed him all kinds of shit to be genetically superior, similar to how the dagestanis all get fed ‘vitamins’ as kids. Some steroid effects are just don’t go away like muscle recovery etc etc… so that’s probably why he’s abnormal currently. Cuba,Russia and china are a some of the most dirtiest countries in the world they would do anything to win in the Olympics. That’s why many of their athletes get caught up in steroid usage and Russia got banned.
I met Yoel around 2013ish down in Florida at the Deerfield Walmart on Hillsboro and 441. I was a huge fan of him since the Sydney Olympics. I kept staring at him and finally approached him and told him in Spanish that he looked exactly like this Cuban Wrestler and he laughed and said it was him. I was so stoked. Shook his hand and it was different. Just a man made outta wood. Super nice dude though. Soft spoken and has a good energy.
it seems to be the only wood here is in your pants and its hankering for Yoel Romero!
Hes a man we all should inspire to be he should have gotten more recognition
haha i have run into him around the same area he is a nice dude and looks like a super hero
I ran into Jeff monson at a Walmart in Washington state lol….
You know how I know thi is fake as hell, the location is to accurate, and the way you said I was staring at him and finally approached like that's the most fake sounding shit ever
Yoel telling Bisping, “I love you”, was one of the funniest, most badass, and scariest comments made by a UFC fighter. 😅
He was gonna make bisping his gf😂😂😂😂
His fight with Izzy was the dumbest, lamest most garbage performance in the history of the sport. Other than than, he's terrific I guess 😂
@@seltonk5136 he fought Izzy? Need to watch that. Sounds interesting
@@kasimahmed8858 don't lol
@@kasimahmed8858 it was not interesting.
Evidently, he's also incredibly well spoken in his native language as well. One of his trainers and a few others have referred to him as a Warrior Poet and I think that's dope.
😂no man noo😂
@@adlbdeportes Is this untrue?
@@MannyGrey idk im a native spanish speaker but i have never mistened to a full spanish interview but if not smart he’s def wise
Yeah we Spanish speakers know Cubans very rarly are ilitirate even tho they have that "poverty" the ones u guys compare the real Cubans with are the one u guys have spawn 😅
@@MannyGrey its true as in he's real mannered and proper in Spanish when he talks. U could say "high class" pronounces all the words fully, pauses doesnt just ramble, no slang proper/real words only, no cursing, etc.
Joe trying to get Masvidal to compliment that impression... King for not taking the bait.
lol
Yup lol
to be fair, it was a good impression.
@@kingraj333 to be more fair Joe is cool but he's not very funny.... actually he SUCKS as a comedian if we are really going there!
No it’s because he’s from Miami and he’s used to that, everybody here is Cuban and hella ppl make fun of the accent so it’s nothing new
The damage he got in the Rockhold fight, and then this brutal ko I honestly think ended Weidmans career early. Dude has never been the same since.
Tbh his career ended when bisping knocked him out
Luke lost to Jan at LHW and did decent against Paulo despite having a staph infection, he's just getting old and always been a bit chinny. Weidman tho legit never looked the same after that cuban missle flying knee imo
@@ThermaL666 Weidman was never in life knocked out by Bisping.
@@droppa57kgx24 I think he was referring to Rockhold
@@twojeeze I was, but numb nuts there can’t read between the lines 😂
I took a picture with Yoel during the week before his first fight with Whittaker. I put my arm on his shoulder to take a picture, I've never felt a human being with muscles like that in my entire life. His shoulder felt like putting your arm on an oak table. Not in any way exaggerating. He was like a bodybuilder flexing as hard as he can while he was completely relaxed.
I have no clue how the fuck he made 185 and I have no clue what they injected into that guy in Cuba but it really worked and is still working lol
Imagine being Whittaker and fighting the guy 10 rounds.
And still winning even after getting beaten
For reference, Yoel’s son got hit by a car in the dark. His first words afterwards was, “dad?”. Imagine that.
4:18 "BOOM" was so on point 😂
I love hearing anything involving Yoel, he seems like a really wholesome dude, but also the scariest person on the planet
You must have missed the Izzy fight. I'd be more afraid of falling asleep
@@seltonk5136 From the Izzy because he was running for his life.
Yeah cause izzy ran like a b*tch@@seltonk5136
Wrestlers have the strength that just can't be replicated by lifting. It's so transferrable just by mastering bodyweight. It works. Yoel is a prime example of it
Yeah. And roids
💯‼️‼️‼️📈📈
@@robschanaynay3500 even in case of natty wrestlers they're usually stronger than weightlifters that are their size.
stronger in a sense that their strength is more usable in day to day life or fighting
@@yogeshyonjan5179 Most likely because they tend to train a lot with odd objects.
It's akin to Farmer strength or Old man strength w tendons and ligaments like steel
Romero’s knockout of Weidman was my favourite finish for a LONG TIME. Every time i’d see someone shoot for a takedown, i never understood how people weren’t eating knees more often
Joe talking about Romero like he's been out of the game... Dude is still taking heads off in Belator
6:18
@@tinman4486 yeah, was talking about the first half of the clip, that's when I wrote my comment
What he did to Manhoef was brutal
@@saidesimon3144 Bark Bark
@@MavDillain Nice pp
4:17 goated editing
Man, masvidal voice is such relaxing and calm
I remember that Yoel podcast. Listening to him talk about life in Cuba was just utterly mind blowing. Joey's translation was also on point.
That was one of my favorite podcast I highly recommend you go listen to it, I promise you will not be disappointed.
joeys translation couldve been better lowkey
@@pablocaicedo9941 it wasn't a true translation, but it was a perfect Joey Diaz translation. My favorite moment was when Yoel goes "Claro que si" and Joey goes "Oh fuck yeah" I burst out laughing
That flying knee was not only beautiful but an angel literally came down and turned yoel body so he could land follow up punch
you caught that too huh.. amazing awareness... killer agility and focus on the target
I always enjoyed how Yoel carried himself. Great example.
I always love listening to Joe talk about Yoel
Whittaker said he took damage hitting Yoel... And he had to fight him twice.
The judges got the 2nd fight wrong. Yoel beat Whittaker the 2nd time
I truly think if Yoel came over at 19 he would be top 5 no question
a 19 year old wrestling phenom, built like a god, and extreme explosiveness. Yeah no doubt
naw.. he was eating whole foods in cuba. he would had just ate processed foods here
@@kingcrimson3882 he’s never popped and is Olympic usada tested
He says in Cuba everyone looks like him so it’s whole food diet
@@fmcdomer lol? He got a 6 month ban from Usada for “tainted”’supplements.
@@Jolinator He took them to court and won, take the tinfoil hat off lol. This isn't a UFC conspiracy when a judge awards you $12m dollars in damages and emotional distress against said supplement company.
Great video. Thanks for putting this together. The Yoel impression is hilarious lmao
😅
Joe got that impression of Yoel spot on 😂😂
Imagine seeing Yoel Romero running at you full speed 😂😂💀
😂😂😂
it would be the first time I'd play dead
LITERALLY THE SOLDIER OF GOD.
That would be Michael the Archangel but ok
@@BennyNegroFromQueens I LUUUUUH UUUUUU
@@BennyNegroFromQueens ur a clown. That’s Yoels nickname
@@BennyNegroFromQueens noforgayjesus
the cuban muscle crisis
The key to being as physically freakish as Romero is carefully choosing the right parents.
Funny joke but also the darkly ironic truth. Underrated comment will fly over people's heads and get buried in the comments.
Ohhhhhh. Like the chinese government does with tall people to make them american basketball player.
@1dpick1Yue Sun, Jianlan Yi, Yao Ming, Bateer Mengke, Zhizhi Wang, Zhou Qi
Bisping avoided the Yoel fight at ALL costs.
why would he fight another steroid cheat and lose the other eye,
Bisping is easily the most mediocre welterweight champion of all time. Annoys me how much credit he gets for accomplishment nothing.
@@semyaza555bruh
@@semyaza555 Same. Just like diaz
Bisbin again shows his ignorant arrogance.
Yoel and Whittaker 2 fights were insane. The force those 2 were crashing into each other with was insane. A tornado meets a volcano
😂 Joe is so proud of his Yoel impression
It's really good he should be! Hah
"See you soon boy" really goes hard the way he says it too.
“He doesn’t lift weights”
Video immediately cuts to footage of him working out with weights
Masvidal said personally when they worked out together he never lift weights. Learn English
@@supergangster8883 0:31 “doesn’t lift weights “
0:34 “and he doesnt llift weights”
Learn to not be dumb
Doesn't smoke weed either. Lol.
@@supergangster8883 some people just don't listen
I love Joe's Yoel impression 😂
Yoel is the real life Wolverine without the claws
Yoel is a living legend... IMO, he never got the recognition he deserves 😤💯
You can tell masvidal really has a lot of love for Yoel Romero. He talks about Romero how Romero talks about god lol
I guess God’s a big fan of stalking and sucker punching people in parking lots too huh?
Yoel really is a 1 in a billion.
I completely forgot Joey Diaz’s translations Lmaooo Yoel so well spoken and Joey added flavor to everything lmaoooo
Yoel is a beast.
One of the best to ever do it.
Bisping is very fortunate not to have faced yoel because he would have done mean things to bisping in the octagon
just noticed chris Weidman dragged his knee to try to shoot in such a way that i think that Knee snap was inevitable
2:25 to 2:30
Imagine how Weidman felt..
Look how heavy his head gets rocked! Its not only the knee from Yoel.. its also what happend while he went down! He must have felt like being in a car crash and thats literally IT!
Super soldier serum in Cuba go crazy
I want to be Yoel Romero when I grow up
Me 2, I'm 30 😊
@@wesker19908 LOL
Yoel Romero is Cuban Batman
If Bo Jackson had turned his talents to UFC if it were around at the time
Rogan's GH gut looks just like the new era of UFC belts.
He doesnt lift weights.10 seconds later video of him lifting weights 😆
Maybe it was recent
4:16 the "boom"" synchronized with the punch 🤣
I trained martial arts with a man who was in the Cuban Special forces Black Wasps. He talked about how they turned you into an animal. His muscles were hard as steel.
How? What did they do
@@RoyalBlood1444 Read about them. Basically, they were trained to be ruthless killing machines.
@@Docinaplane wow. I'ma look into it. I've been reading about Apache warriors as recently
@@RoyalBlood1444 You might like to know the rest of the story. His father was a professor in Cuba. He talked to his son about what was happening to him. Because of his respect for his father, he left the special forces and changed his life. It didn't happen overnight, but he eventually came to the US with nothing but a very good work ethic. Now he has a very successful martial art business and a family. He has even managed to bring his parents here from Cuba. His muscles are still hard as steel, but he is more of a hugger than a killer, lol
@@Docinaplane that's amazing. He sounds like a marvel character lol. Cubans are a strong people
4:15 so crazy that the "boom" matched the knockdown
“He doesn’t lift weights”. Two seconds later he’s got bar with weights
You don't listen,masvidal said when they use to be together
Jon Jones, Romero and Masvidal have/had the same manager. They all got their juice in Miami.
The right thing to do is bringing him back #UFC
Juiced to the gills
He’s genetically gifted yeah but he’s also on some roids and that’s fine at his age but ufc is natural
@@libertarianpunk8558UFC is natural 😂😂😂 get real bud
@@xgtwb6473 many athletes are juiced but they're not like him
@@Dirtysanchez27 he got costas sekret juice
basically a supersoldier that escaped Cuba
I did not know Yoel started his UFC career at 36?! Bruh wtf! Had he come at 26 I could only imagine.
This is insane, 36!
Bispbing ducked TF out of Romero
Can't blame the guy he had one eye lol
He ducked a lot of people who would have smoked him ,not just yoel ...Jacare ,mousasi and yoel
@@moltoforte4450 faxx
alot of fighters ducked him. I liked the Costa fight. like Yoel, I believe Costa will fight anyone. would absolutely love to see Costa vs Khamzat!
he was probably afraid for his health/life. Can't blame him
if u listen to all of joes JRE mma podcasts u know he talks about this ALL the time
he's like the holyfield of mma
Jorge seems like a very grounded, logical, and articulate guy….and also one of those guys that if he likes you, he’s a friend for life, but he’s probably the last guy you would want to get cross ways with.
Now Yoel is chopping heads at Bellator
Yoel's basically One Punch Man
Masvidal not acknowledging Joe's impersonation is a crime hahaha
imagine a 19 year old Romero getting coached at ATT holy shit
Imagine if they got him to wrestle. He is already world-champion level and he doesn't even use the best tool he has. Imagine if Mike Tyson became world champion whilst not throwing that right hand. If Yoel did wrestle, he'd mop the floor with everybody. There's no one who beats him, nobody. The only threat I see to him is Alex Pereira, but I feel as though a Yoel Romero who actually uses his wrestling just dominates him on the floor and paints the octagon with Alex's blood.
@@bigrandomun9267 why didn't he wrestle adesanya or Whittaker?
@@gregoryretzepis1798 Probably because he has a horrible balance for a wrestler. He keeps falling all over the octagon. How is he gonna control his opponent when he can't even control himself
@@gregoryretzepis1798 he had a neck surgery which fused his vertebrae or something. I read about it years ago. Basically, he is risking paralysis if he tries to wrestle and has to rely on striking. Imagine still going out to fight with such a risk. Dude is a savage like no other.
@@whatt57that's insane dude. Yoel is just built different. I've always thought he was great. Would've been awesome if he joined the UFC like 7 years earlier than he did. Would've been champion no doubt.
i remember yoel training in a parking garage spinning his coach around like he was pizza dough
Yoel is one of those guys I wish we got more time with
Dude is about to fight Vadim nemkov. For the title. His fighting days aren't over jus yet
33 and love you all for your inspiration along with many marshal artists. To battle bullying and the streets. To be a better person and defend the freedoms of your family.
He used to live in Germany, spoke to a high level wrestler out of Eastern Europe that trained with him and he said that Romero is a man made of steel 🦸🏿♂️
He actually lived in nuremberg and trained with the grizzlys just Sayin
@@m.d404 Nürnberg is Germany what’s your point

Yoel giving bert kreischer vibes “Iam the MACHINE”
Also that edit at 4:17 was clean af

He’s not just fighting in belabor, he’s fighting for the belt😂
Belabor 😂😂😂
Michael Bisping and Yoel Romero remind me of friends that goat each other into stupid competitions
Joe's saying "they turn into a machine " was fkn hilarious 😂, idk how the hell Maz held from laughing 😂😂
that backflip in jeans at the adesanya press conference was unreal out of nowhere , isreal was like wow Im gonna stop dancing now..
Lmao... I remember that... Izzy literally did not what to do next... He was like a robot that short circuited...
We need Yoel to come back to fight Pereira
Yes, Perrerra wouldn’t run away
Imagine Yoel eating alex pereira signature left punch like nothing 😂
@@veerlaff5528 u hope. Yoel is scary
@@mauricioaguirre1419 Alex would get scared 😂
That boom tied to the left hook was money editing ggs
He is a one in a lifetime athlete.
One more of joes impressions of yoel. Died laughing man😂
4:18 the way u timed that “boom” was phenomenal
Real life Wolverine
Super cool editing bro. Excellent work. It’s a pleasure to watch. Keep up the good work man 👍
Michael Bisping! Where are you?! La Candela!
love the fight stoppage mid-video by Mario "blood for the blood god" Yamasaki.

@@benfrancis787 because God didn't make you to fight on his behalf.
@@noone-zl2di what did Luke rockhold do to upset god so much that he sent that uppercut 😂
Joes ,impersonation of Joel is on point lol
Jorge Masvidal sounds like half of what he says he just makes up on the spot, he makes it sound like he's been close friends with Yoel but calls him "Joel" @0:15 and says he doesn't lift weights (cut to video of Yoel using a barbell) dudes a professional bullshitter LOL
I believe it considering they're both Cuban
He's telling the truth
Just push-ups pull-ups and body weight squats? That’s fucking insane
I met Javon "The Freak" Kearse and it was like meeting a monster, but he was the nicest guy you could ever meet. And I'm 6'4" and 245 lbs at the time, and I'm about 33 yrs old. When I shook Javon's hand, it was like shaking hands with a steel creature. He was also on crutches at the time as he was recovering from an injury he sustained in the NFL. He told me the only reason he was on crutches still is that the team doctors misdiagnosed his injury and had the wrong treatment. The veins and ligaments I could see through his skin with the muscle is something I could never attain if I was to do steroids from birth. It was literally like a human race horse, I was in shock. And I knew high level athletes in college. He was a genetic "freak" like Romero. Look at Jon Jones, he isn't a freak to look at, but look at his NFL brothers and what they have achieved. If you have good genetics AND a good work ethic, LOOK OUT. The NFL is full of these guys. MMA in 30 years will be CRAZY!!!!!!!!!
There’s a picture of Jevon Kearse holding a ruler with his pinky and his thumb
I saw Kearse in a commercial once and was like “holy crap who the hell is that guy!!”
Our April 8th Gamebred victory party? Sold out since last week.
All of Los Angeles expected. (most of us see this going the same
way that Masvidal-Till went). Jorge already knows the exploits.
He's the fight game's greatest Mind. He lives for the big moments.
Rises to every occasion.
If Yoel Romero Spoke English 😂 he’ll be funny asf and a bigger superstar
He does speak English
@@javalavadingdong 😂 more to the point he try to respond to everything with no translator
Bro I think his broken English makes him even funnier tbh, the guy makes me crack up hard
@@mclovin411 🤣 lmao exactly by English I meant more confidence to speak English don’t have to be good
@@HistoricFlow you sure you speak English, because i dont know what the hell you are trying to say/ LMAO
Yoel is gonna be the Methuselah of MMA. It's a shame Dana couldn't help him out some more but looking forward to seeing his next fight in Bellator
Herschel Walker supposedly only used body weight movements also looked jacked. Some people got those genes.
Romero vs Costa is absolutely the best titan clash in UFC ever.
Robbed of the belt multiple times. Uncrowned GOAT
People's Champ
Soldier of God
Facts
nah Yoel would miss weight and shit on purpose, he’s a cool guy but that’s not honorable
Adam bro you got 2.5K subs. Your videos are clean and crisp keep it up. Gonna be 2.5 mil soon
Do you think if yoel started the same age as jon jones, hed be better? Obviously different weight classes but in terms of resume
Sure ,and he is a lot more disciplined than jones ,so he would have been crazy good
Athletically, yes. Yoel is a far better overall athlete. Fight IQ is Jon's strongest point, so Jon probably still pulls through as the better fighter even if they started at the same age. Yoel's losses are against high fight IQ guys (Costa fight was a robbery)
no
