maybe you should have watched it instead of thinking of a smart comment to make. It was an extremely technical, high level fight, won by a tactics that were brutally delivered.
But......there is another animal that want to claim the throne........the Galapagos snapping tur tle....Tell me you didn't just read that in his voice, lmao!!
@@Look73689bro stop being a sheep and following what everyone else is saying. If your a real mma fan you appreciate how crazy it is that you'll ramero is doing this at his age.

good thing about the tiktok brain is that you're much more useful in problem solving than the average person, sad part is that no one is in tune with your perception.
Yoel is a tank. Those kicks were brutal, but only one at a time. He could have followed up a couple of times when Santos was off balance and finished it with some straight punches.
By the way ppl are talking about the performance of both fighters, No one seems to understand the reasons behind such lackluster performances from both fighters. First analysis, comes from Santos. He’s approaching Yoel in a more lower and narrow stance than he normally has. Reason being is Yoel is very explosive and has taken down recent opponents and has been effective on the ground as well. So to negate the potential of a takedown, Thiago has his hands low and ready to stuff takedowns if necessary. Yoel on the other hand, sees that, and uses that to stand up a little taller than usual, making it easier for him to get off combos to Santos’s head and body and to pressure him back, while not giving away the plan of a possible takedown and staying safe from knees and uppercuts.
Okay with some time passing and being able to rewatch the fight a few times with the eyes of a fighter myself (I’m a 5-2 former ammy heavyweight champion and 0-1 in BKFC) the fight is a joy to watch if you like pausing and analyzing every little chess move they make that makes each other so hesitant…. However as a fan of mma who just like violence and action this wasn’t nearly as enjoyable
Love Chael and Hardy together, this was awesome. Note though, everyone is always talking about Yoel not using his wrestling, but no one talks about his fused neck. It might be super painful or his spine just doesn't bend and flex the way it should, makes sense that he keeps it standing. Very impressive to be honest, late 40's, fused neck, doesn't use his best weapons, still a monster 💪
Аlexander Shabliу and Usman Nurmagomedov will fight. Usman will win. Because Usman's grappling, bjj, wrestling, jiu jitsu and sambo is very good. Shabliy is very weak in these sports. Shabliy is good kickboxer
Yall tripping this was actually very entertaining to watch during my smoke session and Yoel is a animal always love watching his fights nd Santos aint and middle weight yall must forgot that point Yoel is moving up to fight in light heavyweight bot middle weight and he did good gotta respect both mens ability and power because within a second or seven pounds of force and its lights out if they connect both are strong but Yoel is build differently
Yoel is perpetually at a disadvantage in every single fight he's in, because of crazy dry feet..he's fighting on an ice skating rink! Dude can't get grip on the canvas/mat when kicking, punching or going for a takedown...and I've always felt a bit bad for him because of that!
idk whats with the comments it was an interesting fight to watch. fighting isnt about entertainment its about tactics and strategy. taking Yoels power in consideration was wise Thiago is at a point of his career where a bad ko from Yoel can be career ending both fighters have that capability, it was a good tactic to first take the power out Thiagos legs with the leg kicks, wish to see Thiago use his reach more with jabs and teeps, that body kick was fire, it was Yoels night
Not sure why Yoel didn't follow up those leg kicks with more punches cause I saw him winning that easily. Thiago's legs were gone, he was barely standing...
Marreta is a monster, he can have no knees and still throws a kick that would chop a pine tree. Have him not being as dangerous Yoel would have ragdolled him at will. Great fight depite the hate being thrown
I’m on RUclips because I can’t sleep. Fortunately this fight fixed that problem. 😂
Me too! I said, perfect. . [Not one swing of the leg till 50sec. Wtf
Just leaving from boredom when i read this😅

Thiago Santos really hasn't been back since he fought Jon Jones
I don’t think his knees ever recovered after that fight
Waterson...I just wanted to say her name
only 1 win since then, over Johnny Walker
Marreta não é mais o msm há muito tempo
Yup, he somewhat did during the Hill fight but yeah, he's just coasting through fights now
Watching it at 1.5 speed, helps
Skipping the entire video helps even better 😉
Hood suggestion 😊
How?
I watched it in x2
😂😂😂😂😂
Well... thats 17 minutes and 15 seconds im not getting back
i skipped the video but came back to thank you for saving me some times thanks lol
Who might see this old folk fight.....
@@waleedkhattak8114may I have a few of those minutes 😂
I was looking for the highlights but there is no 😂
Thank you! You saved me mine quarter of hour!
This might be the first time ever ive seen Romero with a little bit of fat 😂
Age wins every time.
i its because hes fighting at 205
@@zfontain1975no, just different weight class
Saudi fans dont exist but the couple hundred people in attendance were booing after 90 seconds
These guys had too much Ice-cream before the fight😂
Tik tok has really ruined everyones attention span and it shows expecting yoel to fight like hes still 35 is insane
good thing about the tiktok brain is that you're much more useful in problem solving than the average person, sad part is that no one is in tune with your perception.
Yes because when they are hopping back and forth not even circling that’s yoel being an elite and reading him huh
@notktm expecting yoel to fight like he did 10 years ago is stupid and it doesn't really need much thinking to realize that
"your watching a very risk averse gameplan by both guys" now theres the understatement of the year damn
Reading the comments was more entertaining than the fight 😏
También 😎
Worse than sparring in the gym
Nope

Nah, Derrick still has value
Yoel is a tank. Those kicks were brutal, but only one at a time. He could have followed up a couple of times when Santos was off balance and finished it with some straight punches.
PEDs are powerful
shoulda coulda woulda . you were not in that cage bud
He couldn’t, not with straight punches. Especially with santos being longer than he is. He’d have to throw looping shots to catch him flush.
Yoel a lengend of the sport. Great to see him still fighting!!
So crazy seeing these guys in belator/PFL
Also crazy to see them share the cage since they both train at ATT
Its those leg kicks that won the fight for Romero. Judges will always like leg kicks.
Congrats bellator on the victory overall 👍
Romeo’s specialty is performing tango
Yoel Romero has a deceptively bad record, so many losses from fights he either should have won or arguably did win and got screwed by the judges.
I Agree 💯
Read a few comments, never made it past introductions. Thanks for saving me some time…
Man,Santos with proper legs is a nightmare for everyone!!!
I have seen sparing sessions with more enthusiasm…
Time te search something else to do for these guys… 😢
Good fight Romero is always entertaining to watch
Good combo punch kick sweep takedown wrestling technique

why are these guys talking over chael?
Inexperience and ignorance.
@@jayrowe6473they didn’t even know he fought Jones
Quite a peculiar and frustrating fight. Romero has been involved in a few of those.
Seen romero all the time as an Stricker...where the hell his Olympic medal in wrestling
did you post this to help insomniacs fair play works a treat
remember when Thiago was fun to watch
now he's Tyron 2.0. Thiago "the frozen one" Santos
NEEDED 5 ROUNDS!!!!!! T_T
What? haha 👍🏻
We're just dancing in the moonlight, we're not here to fight....
Only thing entertaining in this fight are the commentators bigging up the fighters.Romero knows how to numb a fight
Romero is known for this.. his fight with Izzy was hands down the worst fight I’ve ever seen
It’s like they are just going through the motions.
Hey so can we turn the lights on?

It has been a long time since I saw a strong Romero.
Excellent lighting, the ref is clear as day.
Grande Romero
Romero isn't 50 years old by now? U cannot believe he's still fighting
Bellator prefers their athletes to be 45 and over.
Ninguém cansou, ninguém se machucou, ninguém bateu, ninguém apanhou.
If Yoel had just exerted himself more in his fights. He would have been more than just a Contender.
You can't blame Romero, he's like Bernard Hopkins, his fights against Tarver and Wright weren't exactly barn burners either.
Os dois Tem as mãos pesadíssimas e estão se respeitando !!

Quando o medo de perder é maior que a vontade de ganhar
Blast power without accurate precision and no control can often lead to a little mistake and result in defeat in a fight sometimes.
idk whats with the comments it was an interesting fight to watch. fighting isnt about entertainment its about tactics and strategy.

Yoel Romero aos 46 anos de idade ainda impõe medo e respeito em qualquer um
4 years ago my dream was for the Thiago Santos who fought Jimi Manuwa to fight the Dominick Reyes who beat Jones
The fighting industry isn’t paying enough them to stop fighting even when they have been long done
Can’t pay the bills coaching?
Doesn't help that this is the performance that they put up.
Not sure why Yoel didn't follow up those leg kicks with more punches cause I saw him winning that easily. Thiago's legs were gone, he was barely standing...

Santos had no interest in win!
Whaaaat Romero still fighting
😂😂😂😂 “it was like being locked in a cage with a bear” yeah. I’m good on all that! 😅

Yoel should stay at 185.

3/4 of these fights is dancing I never understood I guess I’m too old to appreciate these fights
It took me a minute to remember who won this fight.

Couple months ago if I remember right
three weeks ago
