UFC Fight Night Machida vs Romero

This Saturday, UFC Fight Night will feature Lyoto Machida against Yoel Romero. This is an intriguing match up. Machida is coming off some tough losses to some of the strongest in UFC, I am of course talking about Weidman and Rockhold. Just two monsters.

Romero has three straight wins, but he does not seem to have much endurance, just little bit more than his opponents. Machida will be Romero's toughest challenge yet.  Check out the fights below.

Here are Machida's last three fights:

Loss to Rockhold

 

  Win over Dollaway


Loss to Weidman


Here are Yoel Romero's Last Three matches:

Win over Kennedy 


Win over Tavares

Tavares vs Romero

 Win over Brunson




Romero, doesn't quite present the challenge of a Rockhold or Weidman.
I think the "Dragon" Machida will take this one with a sweet submission. Romero doesn't appear to have a great defense for a grappler and will have to rely on striking. What do you think?
