Conor McGregor<\/a> ain’t the only one buyin’ Mick’s “women weaken legs” motto … ’cause boxing star Rolly Romero<\/a> says he too has sworn off gettin’ busy in the bedroom!<\/p>\n

“I haven’t had sex since June 4, 2025. Over a year. I gave up sex til marriage. My body reserved for my wife, that the Lord Jesus will deliver to me. I gave it up completely til marriage,” RR told us at an event in Los Angeles this week.<\/p>\n

Of course, McGregor shocked fans this week when he said he not only hasn’t knocked boots, but he’s sworn off<\/a> any sexual touching completely in preparation for his fight against Max Holloway<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Romero’s motivation isn’t for performance … instead, it’s religious.<\/p>\n

While he waits for his wife to come into his life, Rolly is preparing for a big fight with fellow star Teofimo Lopez<\/a> on August 22 in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n

Lopez isn’t as strict when it comes to the bedroom.<\/p>\n

“I partake. And then I’ll probably hold off for the last two weeks,” Lopez told us.<\/p>\n

It’s whatever it takes to win for both fighters, ’cause the stakes are enormous.<\/p>\n

Romero is defending his title for the first time after shocking Ryan Garcia<\/a> last year in what was a huge upset win.<\/p>\n

Lopez is coming off a rare loss to Shakur Stevenson<\/a> … and is looking to get back on track in a major way, leaving T-Mobile Arena with a shiny new belt around his waist.<\/p>\n

Despite all that’s on the line, Teo and Rolly know how to have fun … and that’s why they’ve been the source of some epic trash talk.<\/p>\n

The fight’s just about 40 days away — in the meantime, enjoy Lopez trolling Romero over an alleged foot fetish.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Boxer Rolly Romero I Swore Off Sex … I’m Pullin’ A McGregor!!!
