Weight Class: Middleweight Yoel Romero (8-1) is and up and coming monster at middleweight who is an absolute beast. Tim Kennedy (18-4) is on a hot streak and coming off a win over Michael Bisping where he looked dominant. The question here is whether Romero can out-muscle Kennedy, and what sort of game plan Kennedy has for Romero. Both fighters are undefeated in the UFC, and if there's an advantage, it goes to Kennedy, who has twice as much experience as his opponent. Romero, should he beat Kennedy, will have arrived as a serious contender at 185lbs. He's currently ranked 10th, and Kennedy 6th. Kennedy, however, has faced stiffer competition, and we're calling for a decision win here as well, in Kennedy's favour.
