UFC 205's Yoel Romero suspended two months for cage climb, celebratory march after flying knee knockout

Note to fighters: If you plan to compete at the next Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) event in New York, you better be on your best behavior because New York State Athletic Commission (NYSAC) has shown it isn’t messing around when it comes to shelling out disciplinary punishments.

Yoel Romero is the latest to feel NYSAC's wrath, as the regulatory body has suspended the Cuban wrestling powerhouse two months for jumping over the cage wall and marching around it like some "Soldier of God" after knocking out Chris Weidman at UFC 205 on Nov. 12, 2016, according to MMA Fighting.
