At UFC Fight Night 70, Yoel Romero continued on his war path toward the top of the middleweight division.
Following two closely contested rounds, Romero exploded on Lyoto Machida in the third stanza. Immediately after scoring a takedown, Romero blasted Machida with a series of elbows, knocking the Brazilian unconscious and giving Romero a 6-0 UFC record.
Unfortunately, Romero's post-fight interview on Fox Sports 1 overshadowed his performance somewhat. With his thick accent, many took Romero to be making an anti-homosexual speech, but the Cuban later clarified during the post-fight press conference that he was not talking about that at all.
Either way, Romero is quickly becoming one of the biggest threats to 185-pound champion Chris Weidman. So, here is a look at what should be next for The Soldier of God and the rest of the UFC Fight Night 70 competitors.
