Tyron woodley is looking for the most profitable fights possible, having already challenged Nick Diaz e Georges St Pierre. But today that means a duel against Conor McGregor, the UFC's biggest star. The welterweight champion admitted he would go to Ireland to face Notorious, the lightweight champion.
“If you want to go in there with a lion, have its head ripped off and watch me spill your blood all over the octagon while you have that stupid tiger tattoo on your chest looking like a clown, we can do that. We can do it in Dublin, Ireland, behind a diner, I don’t care,” Woodley challenged in his vlog “The Champ Life.”
The two had a brief moment of tension during the official UFC 205 weigh-in. After Woodley made his weight, the two bumped into each other on a table next to the scales and exchanged glances and brief words. A day later, the American would retain his welterweight belt after a draw against Stephen Thompson, while the Irishman made history, winning the lightweight title with a knockout over Eddie Alvarez.
