Jewish?[edit]

Any sources to this sudden addition of him being Jewish?--P.4.P. No. 1 (talk) 12:23, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I sorted out this confusion:

Romero listens to music in Hebrew the words of the song are sang in Hebrew. But it's not Judaism, that line is from the New Testament, Revelation 22:17 "The Spirit and the Bride Say, “Come!”". He wears a head band with the logo "John 3:16" , and is follower of Jesus: " "With Christ everything is possible", was the first sentence pronounced Yoel Romero, UFC Fighter, in an interview with Infobae.". He reads the bible and plays the Shofar , if you see the poster behind him at the beginning of his fights they have the Menorah and the Star of David symbols and some Hebrew words http://mmashare.whowillwinwhy.com/2014/04/romero-vs-tavares.html.

Yoel Romero is a Messianic Jew which is considered a Christian denomination.109.66.179.131 (talk) 02:43, 24 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have a source for that? I mean, that he is one, not what it's considered. InedibleHulk (talk) 05:27, 1 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

height?[edit]

Sherdog lists him at 5ft 10, UFC lists him at 6ft http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Yoel-Romero-60762 http://www.ufc.com/fighter/Yoel-Romero?id= - which source do we follow? Spacecowboy420 (talk) 08:52, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

AGE[edit]

Chael sonnen recently mentioned that Yoel is lying about his age. Considering in the 90s Chael was younger than Romero and now suddenly they're both listed as 46. Should be mentioned? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GYkru-Xb5Vs&feature=youtu.be 85.148.209.231 (talk) 09:32, 19 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No. Wikipedia info added or changed need to be supported by independent, reliable source (such as from major newspaper/books) for verification and Chael and Utube are considered not reliable sources. Cassiopeia talk 22:34, 19 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
