Why Did Tyron Woodley Duck Colby Covington?

As is Woodley, Colby does nothing for him.

Difference is, Woodley can't afford to be picky. He's not in the position to. Instead of holding up the division for his quest of a big money fight he should vacate or be stripped
 
Wait, So the guy who thought Robbie Lawler is scared to fight Colby Covington
<DisgustingHHH>
 
Yeah OK. Lol at boring Woodley who isn't a draw getting a big money fight

GSP vs Woodley would be a money fight regardless, since GSP would be returning to WW.

& GSP would be a step up in competition and pay compared to Covington.

A money fight in comparison to what?

GSP doesn't need Woodley. No one knows what GSP's intentions are after vacating the belt
 
Did Colby not watch Colby Covington's last fight? :confused:
 
Wait! I thought RDA vs Lawler was a title eliminator? Why should Woodley fight a lower ranked, lesser know opponent? For your entertainment?

Typical entitled MMA fan.
 
Colby threw nearly as many strikes in 1 round vs. Maia, as Woodley did the entire 5 rounds.

In two rounds, he landed more than Tyron did in 5 rounds.

But TWood is the GOAT and Colby isn't worthy

Maybe he'd rather sit at home and pout because he get didn't his "money fight" with Nate Diaz.
 
Woodley is a fan of challenges, Colby is too easily hit, got busted up by a 40 year old BJJ guy. GSP would be a harder fight, unfortunately the french-canadian is not confident in taking that fight

Woodley hasn't been told he is fighting Covington, so he isn't holding anything up. Woodley isn't being picky or doing the picking. It's as you said, he isn't in the position to. The money guys do the picking. GSP picks his opponents like he picked Bisping and not Weidman/Rockhold or Whitakker. Conor picks his opponents and the sport. The UFC only waits on these guys. Tyron maybe waiting on GSP, to see if he gets picked. The UFC maybe waiting on GSP to see what he decides to do. Either way, Tyron isn't holding anything up. GSP and Conor are the ones holding up the sport, as they are the only ones with the power to.

Yeah that's why he's calling out a LW gatekeeper

Duckley has some rabid fans
 
Woodley got scared after seeing what Colby did to Maia in comparison to him.
Colby would take 3 rounds for a UD or a late finish.

His intentions are clear as evident by what he says and does. He wants a money fight with Conor. But he won't challenge Conor as he doesn't challenge smaller opponents. He is hoping Conor will challenge him.

Tyron's performance was masterful and creative MMA. You don't get it.

It was the best performance Woodley could have possibily given vs. a fighter of that quality and danger. I'm not sure what else Tyron could do without getting choked out by Maia.

Also, Colby is boring.
 
I love hearing guys talk about how "champs are ducking them" when they've done fuck-all and are clearly trying to talk their way up the rankings.

RDA-Lawler winner gets Twood and Colby can fight his way up like an actual fighter. Not talk his way up like a social media whore pretending to be a fighter.
