They will probably pull this fight. I cant believe they have no other MWs fighting saturday. Whatever happened to the backup plan
They should pull it. Giving Yoel a title shot after blowing weight for the interim fight was an awful plan to begin with and it's bullshit for Robert to have to take it now that he's missed twice in a row

“When you have the normal training camp and you miss weight, that’s the big problem,”

-yoel romero talking to ariel helwani
Yoel has done some incredibly athletic things for a man his age, but he still has an age and he needs to adjust his training camp and weight-cutting to compensate for it. No one's body is static (except maybe that lady who only eats raw foods that she grows herself and looks 30 years younger than her husband).

There never has been a backup plan for any event. The ufc just on a couple occasions were lucky to have a fighter available and take credit for it.

It's horse shit that he missed weight to begin with.

It's also horse shit to give him 2 extra hours and then cut that short.

If you think he's cut too much then don't bother the additional weigh in. If it was really a health concern then you should stop the cut and order him to start hydrating again.

Romero has been a disrespectful and unprofessional competitor and deserves to pay a price.

I'd prefer they let him get in there and get the shit beat out of him, but would be happy to see him forced to 205 and lose any ranking. Let him waste his last competitive years fighting scrubs on prelims.
