Yoel Romero delivers brutal comeback to Daniel Cormier after being turned down

Earlier this week on Ariel Helwani’s MMA Show, Yoel Romero’s manager, Malki Kawa, revealed that ‘The Soldier of God’ will be moving up to the light heavyweight division after failing to make the 185-pound weight limit on two separate occasions at UFC 221 and UFC 225.

Kawa also revealed that Romero is interested in a title fight with two-division champion Daniel Cormier, who knocked out Stipe Miocic at UFC 226 this past Saturday to become the promotion’s first ever simultaneous light heavyweight and heavyweight champ.
