The main event of UFC 248 was a major letdown and Yoel Romero is putting the onus on Israel Adesanya.
Neither fighter set the Octagon on fire with their performances in Saturday’s main event at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, but when the scorecards were read all three judges agreed that Adesanya had done enough to retain his middleweight title. Not only did Romero disagree, he also felt that the lackluster action was Adesanya’s fault.
Speaking to Joe Rogan post-fight, Romero accused Adesanya of running away and not engaging him during their five-round contest.
