third belt comin'
Yo man I'm with you on all of it. I don't see the logic here at all. He says he's "driven" by guys that say "don't be scurred homie" but Colby has basically KO'd him talking smack throughout the media. Colby has said T_Wood doesn't even pay guys that have helped train him in the past, that he's a huge piece of shit. If that type of thing doesn't drive you than I don't know what the hell does..
Why give Colby exactly what he wants?
If I was Woodley I'd not pay him any mind either.
Colby seems like the fight to push for sure, man. Great point about him outright shitting on Woodley but also Colby is in an unprecedented place of polarizing fan interest right now. A fight with Colby will likely never get bigger than at this moment when the guy is a lightning rod of controversy. Woodley should strike while the iron is hot.
still, though, as our friend pointed out, Woodley doesn't make the fights, the UFC does.
The greatest WW of all time bullying a LW, LOL!
Fine with me. I think Woodley will KO him.If Colby gets another signature win he won't be able to ignore him and the UFC already could care less about what T-Wood wants, he's not a sustainable champion in their eyes anyways. That being said a fight with Colby would probably do better numbers than Nate because he has talked so much shit and could be promoted as such. Fans love drama
Fine with me. I think Woodley will KO him.
I was higher on Colby after his DHK win. I mean damn if you can out grapple DHK you're grappling is serious. But even though he beat Maia watching Maia land that left over and over dropped his stock in my eyes. I thought if he was going to win he seriously was going to KO Maia.
Now I'd love to see him fight Usman but that's kinda unrealistic. I think a WB or RDA if he beats Lawler after more realistic fights because in January Woodley is having surgery on his shoulder. A win over either and Woodley can't dodge Colby.
I highly doubt that Colby sells though. No one knows who is he and the UFC is trying to capitalize on Diaz's feud with McGregor to see how much of a card carrier Diaz can be.
Trust me Colby vs Woodley makes sense. The only other person who has a legit argument at a shot is WB and he just tooled number 4 at the time Masdival. Diaz vs Woodley is WME trying to pay that loan back.
Genuine imo.I'm not so sure that the numbers would be much different for either fight though Diaz/Covington. Diaz isn't the needle mover without Conor but I think Conor has raised his stock more so then it's ever been prior to this so by that Nate slightly edges Colby. But Colby has made waves recently and he's doing his best Chael/McGregor impersonation trying to spark controversy and raise awareness. I think we pretty much agree on everything here though.
My question to you now is simply this, were Colby's shots at Brazil and his antics with Werdooomerang genuine or an act?

“I don’t even need the cards. I’m fired up about people that tell you, ‘Don’t be scared homie,’ and then they’re scared, homie. Not a possible fight. A 50-percent completed fight. You got one half of the party that’s been offered, that’s accepted, that’s out here with their bag at Wilcard Boxing getting punched by world champions. Then you got the other side that’s got a whole bunch of excuses. So, that’s what I’m kind of fired up about. 10-4 [the UFC offered me a fight with Nate Diaz at UFC 219]. Correct. [I’ve agreed to that fight].”
Genuine imo.
Tyron Woodley wants to fight Nate Diaz because it would make im closer to get the Payday fight against Conor McGregor. Thats it.
Fight tj in his own weight class. You forgot that part. Is tj too big a 125 lber for the greatest 25er of all time?Relatively speaking TJ versus Demetrious is a bigger bully job than Woodley vs Diaz. At least Diaz is taller and probably will have a reach advantage.
DJ doesn't have a single size factor over TJ, and yet everybody went on a campaign to force DJ to fight TJ. LOL
