Seems like the UFC brass is rallying behind their great white hope, Stephen "Wonderboy" Thompson.
Tyron "Black Fedor" Woodley has every right to complain about this promo.
- The first fight mostly is narrated mostly from the point of view of Stephen Thompson.
- When footage of Wonderboy is shown getting his ass kicked, his resilience is being praised. "Unbelievable resilience by Wonderboy Thompson. Just unbelievable. Amazing !"
- When footage of Tyron is shown getting GNP'ed, the accompanying voiceover is about Thompson raining shots on Woodley.
- They show Woodley praising Wonderboy (Great sportsmanship by Back Fedor) but they don't do it the other way around. Usually this is done when a scrub is fighting a great champion. They'd show you James Irvin praising Anderson Silva, but they don't show you Anderson praising Irvin because it doesn't make sense.
- Usually, Championship promos feature the champion as the main protagonist, with the challenger being the obstacle. This promo has it the other way around.
- Footage of Stephen smiling, being a good guy, and having families cheer for him, as opposed to Woodley with the mean face, wearing a hoodie, almost looking like a thug.
Tyron "Black Fedor" Woodley stood up against the racist establishment, and the racist establishment is getting back at him in the most vile of ways.
WAR TYRON !
