6 reasons why you should not miss UFC 221 

#1 Yoel Romero's last charge?

Romero has a massive test ahead

The main event of UFC 221 has turned a little anticlimactic, at least from the title's point of view, but that doesn't mean the fight itself will fizzle out.

Rockhold's and Romero's paths were bound to cross - both their list of victims bear the same names. Both are physical freaks - Rockhold with his cardio and Romero with his athleticism. Their elite skill sets make them dangerous on the feet and on the canvas. But the fact that Romero took the fight on a month's notice, looked gaunt the whole of fight week and eventually missed weight could play a huge role.

Rockhold is a slow starter and has shown chinks in his armor when rushed during the onset of the fight. Romero can detonate at any moment and needs just one shot to close the show. But considering his cardio issues and his depleted state, will he make a huge gamble and pull the trigger early? The longer the fight goes, the stronger Rockhold's chances become. Whichever way it goes, this is an epic clash that fight fans have been chomping at the bit for, for years. Eyes will be fixated on this like it was a hypnotist's medallion.
