News Former Welterweight champ Tyron Woodley reportedly has parted ways with the UFC

[Gio]

"After an eight-year stay under the promotion's banner, former welterweight champion, Woodley has parted ways with the UFC."

"In the midst of a four-fight losing skid, the former undisputed 170-pound best most recently competed professionally at UFC 260 in March, where he suffered an opening-round Brabo choke defeat to Vicente Luque, after an entertaining first-round firefight. The matchup came as the final on Woodley’s promotional deal."

"Speculation began to mount that Woodley’s time with the promotion had come to an end after it emerged that he had been removed from the UFC’s fan’s ranking pool. (H/T Tom Feely). Multiple sources close to FightBook MMA confirmed that Woodley has parted ways with the UFC."

Your thoughts? How will you remember Tyron "T-Wood" Woodley in the UFC?

 

[austinblair]

He fell off rapidly as most do... not surprised with the cut or the decline TBH.

 

[PanicWrassler]

Feed him to Jake Paul.

 

[mkt]

Now there's no excuse for Tyron not to take over the music world and Hollywood....all that talent ready to explode.

 

[BFoe]

Woodley was a very good WW, one of the Top 10 all time imo. He probably needs to retire soon. He can’t compete at a high level anymore.

 

[BestPosterNA]

I thought he got lucky in his first title defenses, but he kept dropping people
Respect I guess, but imagine training with Askren daily and getting pantsed by Usman and Colby on takedowns.
Roufusport is a joke mma gym

 

[Deep808State]

Screw it he should call out Jake Paul for that payday

 

[El Fernas]

Tyron, go get your money...Jake Paul wont get a KO, most likely Tyron wins, dont get anywhere near JLeon tho.

 

[mkt]

Watch an almost 40-year old corpse of Woodley go to Bellator, lose to Lima and have the UFC-hating casuals say "sEe i tOLd yOu bELlaToR fIGhtErS aRe BeTtEr!!"

 

[Gio]

Wishing Tyron the best of luck in all of of his future endeavors. Thanks to him for all the great fights and much respect.

 

[genecop]

Tyrones life matters..

 

[Kos Fan]

Hopefully he made good money. A champion will always be a champion.

Woodley only had one KO in his title defenses. It was against Till. Masvidal did the same thing to Till around the same time.

 

[MigitAs]

Feed him to Jake Paul.

Feed Jake Paul to Logan Paul in MMA.

The most egotistical, full-of-himself, and the most self-entitled fighter who is much over-rated. Good riddance.

 

[Ruv]

Woodley only had one KO in his title defenses. It was against Till. Masvidal did the same thing to Till around the same time.

No he knocked Till down and submitted him with a d'arce choke.

 

[Thad Castle v2]

To be fair his losses were to top guys

 

[tehMoose]

Woodley should box Jake Paul and then retire

 

[Kaynan]

I hope there is a retirement behind this. He had a hell of a run while in his prime.
