Call a Do Over: A Rematch Between Yoel Romero and Tim Kennedy Is Only Fair

Upon further review, perhaps Yoel Romero isn’t as big a jerk as first thought. Our initial collective reaction to Romero’s controversial win over Tim Kennedy at Saturday’s UFC 178 was to sharpen up the pitchforks and double-check our stock of torches.
