Face off! Watch timeless (and still jacked) Yoel Romero staredown opponent ahead of terrifying BKFC debut

Former three-time Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Middleweight title challenger Yoel Romero is making his highly anticipated bare-knuckle boxing debut tomorrow night (Fri., Sept. 12, 2025) when he takes on Theo Doukas in the “Featured” bout of Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) 80: Perdomo vs. Adams 2, inside Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida.

The two fighters faced off at the BKFC 80 ceremonial weigh-ins, and Romero—still an absolute physical specimen at 48—looked ready to make an immediate impact in the promotion.

Since his release from the UFC in late 2020, Romero has competed five times in Bellator and PFL, then went on to destroy two opponents under the Dirty Boxing banner (watch highlights). His transition to bare-knuckle boxing adds another chapter to a career defined by knockout power and relentless aggression (who the hell would fight this man with no gloves?)

Joe Rogan Was Right All Along, as Yoel Romero’s Incredible BKFC Physique Has Fans Dubbing Him a ‘Science Experiment’

Former Olympic silver medalist Yoel Romero left behind his decorated career in Bellator and UFC, as he looks to make his Bare Knuckle Fight Championship (BKFC) debut against Theo Doukas at BKFC 80. The pair came face-to-face on Thursday for the last time before their fight at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida, for their final weigh-ins. 

Yoel Romero tipped the scale at 212.2 lbs, while his opponent, Theo Doukas, weighed in at 212.5 lbs for their light heavyweight bout. While his debut at the promotion has been exciting enough, fans were left stunned by something else entirely during the weigh-ins—his physique, which seems to have proved that Joe Rogan was right all along.
