David Branch wants a bout with Yoel Romero, and his request may be granted.
Branch was last seen in action against Luke Rockhold back in September. He ended up losing the bout via second-round submission. It was his first loss since May 2012.
Branch is eyeing a huge turnaround against former interim title challenger Romero. He threw down a challenge on Twitter:
“Yoel Romero, people have (a) reason to be feared by you my friend. I want to fight the most dangerous people in the world and you’re one of them. February 24 (at) UFC on FOXC (in) Orlando I would like to do battle with you.”
