Yoel Romero vs Tim Kennedy Highlights (The Great Stool Gate FIGHT)

Ойын-сауық

#ufc #mma #yoelromero #timkennedy #combatsports #martialarts #kickboxing #knockout #punch #fight #wrestling #takedown #grappling
In a deceptively important middleweight title fight, Tim Kennedy and Yoel Romero faced off in the second fight of UFC 178's main card. Both men are physical monsters, come from top-level gyms, and own magnetic personalities.
However, there could only be one winner.
That winner, of course, was Romero. After two back-and-forth rounds, he stumbled off his stool 37 seconds later than he should have but mustered up one of his signature explosive right hands and finished Kennedy with ground-and-pound.
Yoel Romero's Corner Deserved a Performance Bonus
Seriously, how smart was that by them? Romero was saved by the bell at the end of Round 2 after Tim Kennedy unloaded a scary series of punches. When Romero stumbled to the corner with a huge cut over his eye, his corner took a solid 30 extra seconds to get out of the cage.
It's impossible to say how much of a difference that made, but it's ultimately something you can't ignore. Romero's corner might have just gamed a win for him.
There will be no asterisk. There will be no overturning by the NSAC. There will be no title run for Kennedy.
All because of one genius play by Romero's corner.

    To me it looked like he had a hold of it for at least a second and a half if not two. Also, he didn't release it until right before that second shot landed. I'm not saying Kennedy necessarily meant for it to be like that because he could have been in survival mode for all I know and instincts just kicked in because Romero is pretty terrifying. 😆

    Him retiring right when the USADA coverage started heating up is suspicious, along with his physique, of course. We can give him the benefit of the doubt, but, if I had to bet, I'd bet the same thing as you. Even USADA has lost a lot of credibility, as far as I'm concerned, most of all for Adesanya not testing positive for something even though he developed that gyno. People that think that was natural haven't put in much research on the subject.
