Yoel Romero Destroys Chris Weidman with Flying Knee, Stakes Claim for Title Shot

Yoel Romero is a terrifying human being, and that was on full display at UFC 205 Saturday night at Madison Square Garden in New York.

Facing former middleweight champ Chris Weidman, Romero countered a takedown attempt with an explosive flying knee for a third-round technical knockout. Check out the video here, courtesy of Talk MMA's Dizz:

While the Cuban has been forgotten about in the UFC's hectic middleweight division, he is riding an impressive eight-fight winning streak, which also includes victories over former champions Ronaldo "Jacare" Souza and Lyoto Machida.

UFC commentator Joe Rogan gave Romero the chance to voice his desire to be the next challenger for the current champ, Michael Bisping (who was in attendance as an analyst). Here was Bisping's response (warning: NSFW content):

This, of course, doesn't mean Bisping vs. Romero is a guarantee. Still, how can anyone argue with a finish like that?
