History has indeed repeated itself in Chicago this morning, as Yoel Romero just missed weight for the second time in a row, ahead of a UFC title fight.
Yoel Romero is booked to face Robert Whittaker for the UFC middleweight title tomorrow night, in the UFC 225 headliner.
Since the fight is for the UFC world title, Yoel is not allowed to way a fraction over 185 pounds. Instead, the UFC title challenger weighed in at 186 pound, missing championship weight.
He was given additional time to cut the weight, so the results below may change.
