Yoel Romero failed a drug test in January and is facing a serious suspension. Derek Brunson, who lost to Romero at UFC Fight Night 35, held nothing back when recently asked about his former opponent’s failed test.

“I messed up my jaw in that fight. I take him down and he’s exploding up. Why? Because his tendons are big, he’s stronger and he’s all juiced out of his mind,” Brunson told FOX Sports. “I don’t feel bad for him. He can do something else, but there’s rules and regulations and when you do certain things in life you have to deal with the consequences. That goes for everybody.

“I expect to see two years minimum out of this guy because he’s a blatant cheater.”
