Yoel Romero’s uncanny strength and power helped him overcome “Jacare” Souza at UFC 194 in a close split-decision fight that could have Romero fighting for the title in his next appearance.
Former UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones sees a bright future for the UFC middleweight and holds him in high regard.
A fan asked Jones what he thought of Romero after the split-decision win at UFC 194 and Jones responded with a tweet that may end up with the result of getting Yoel Romero to join the Jackson Wink MMA team.
Jones tweeted:
@JonnyBones @JacksonWinkMMA @JonXXLL @YoelRomeroMMA u heard it

Romero was well aware of the former champion’s invitation and responded with grace:
@light2909 @JonnyBones @JacksonWinkMMA @JonXXLL it would be an honor
