President Dana White stated that Usman will fight for the title regardless of his opponent. “The fight will happen, or it will be Usman against someone for the title”, revealed the franchise commander.
This isn't the first time White has disdained Tyron. Woodley has been UFC champion since 2016 and has already defended his belt four times. Even so, the organization's leader is running out of patience after so many difficulties in arranging a new fight for 'Chose One'.
“So, do you know what happens? The world goes on without you, boy”, said Dana in an interview held in early December after trying to arrange a fight between Woodley and Colby covington at UFC 233.
