    I've seen far more older fighters beat younger little grasshoppers than I've ever seen these little bucks beat the older bulls, age plays a part yup it sure does buy limited it's not the deciding factor. I'm 45 none of the younger fighters in my gym have taken me out, or come closet it. It's the caliber of the man topped with his skill set finished off with his drive to fight and win thar fight.

    i think it would have been more merciful if Romero had just finished him early instead of knocking him over and letting him recover a few times. Polizzi probably took a few fights worth of damage because of Romero toying with him and not going for the finish.

I swear he channeled the crowd through his arm, after finding the rhythm they were providing. He decided to end it in the final three seconds, and landed a perfectly timed walk off, with the bell.

    Lmao you haven't followed his career at all. Romero is notorious for nuking his opponents after they're unconscious (or close to it) then thanking Jesus for allowing him to inflict so much brain damage. In this fight it almost seemed like he was enjoying fucking up Polizzi so much that he let him get back up so he could continue hurting him. He's an incredibly impressive athlete, for sure, but he's unquestionably quite malicious. And truly anyone who thinks Jesus gives them the power to inflict pain on others like he does is a fucking lunatic.
