Romero Has Four Days To Lose 13 Pounds

Yoel Romero has four days to lose 13 pounds for his UFC 248 title fight.

While that number might be considered chicken feed for most combat sports athletes, who can take a dump and a long nap to drop at least half of that amount, “Soldier of God” doesn’t have the best track record when to comes to making weight.

Especially in UFC title fights.

The severity of his weight cut could mean the difference between winning and losing, as Romero (13-4) will try to upend undefeated middleweight champion, Israel Adesanya (18-0). They headline the UFC 248 pay-per-view (PPV) event this Sat. night (March 7, 2020) inside T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
