Say it ain’t Yo-el!

The UFC says its release of perennial title contender/lovable weirdsmobile Yoel Romero is one of about 60 cuts it will make before the New Year to trim its “inflated” roster. Inflated, huh? That’s an interesting, hey-this-was-nobody’s-fault kind of way to say it. So, that’s a bummer. We also talk about Marvin Vettori’s recent win over Jack Hermansson and preview UFC 256–a fight card that looks fun enough to make us feel uneasy with six days still to go before fight night.
