this is bullshit now ufc is not sport anymore is about money. what is the point of ranking if you can just pick and choose who you want ?
Yeah, two of the best guys in the world despite what you just said. The important thing here is that they are both great fighters and are easily the two biggest draws in Woodley's division. Of course those are the guys he wants to face. If he beats Wonderboy, then he beat a good young flash in the pan but if he beats Georges or Nick he beats a fighter with a huge legacy and gets paid a lot more.you mean someone who's been retired for almost 3 years or someone who hasn't won in 5 years?
All professional sports are about money. There wasn't a tournament, the rankings are subjective and fighters who have been out for a while don't qualify. So whine all you want but the GSP or Diaz fight makes the most sense for Tyron and the UFC.this is bullshit now ufc is not sport anymore is about money. what is the point of ranking if you can just pick and choose who you want ?
no conor KO'd mendes (who everyone accused the ufc of protecting him from) then a few months later he had a second title fight in the 145 division where he KO'd the #1 p4p fighter on the planet who was on a 10 year win streak. he then went on to call out the champion in a higher weight class (if woodley called out bisping it would be different), the champ pulled out and so conor fought a 6'1 200 pound top 5 fighter @ 170 because his opponent couldnt make weight.They are doing the exact same thing. Conor is ducking the 145 division so that he can make the most money while he is champ. Woodley is doing the same..
this literally made me lolWoodley will take on all champions after he gets the big money fights out of the way.
ya RDA has a huge fanbse and pulls a lot of numbers...lelConor fans bragged night and day about Conor being brilliant in doing money fights. Woodley is also brilliant as the Diaz fight is excellent choice and brings him the money.

Woodley doesn't have the charisma to be calling for money fights. He sounds like he is ducking Wonderboy.
If he beats Wonderboy, I say throw him a bone, but otherwise he doesn't have the drawing power to cherry pick.
If GSP comes back, I agree, give him the fight, but this has more to do with GSP than with Woodley.

No. Nothing you say is correct. Woodley is trying to hop on Nick Diaz's money train. Connor is the money train. You are a dope if you don't see that. Plus, Woodley doesn't have what it takes to promote a fight like Connor. Woodley wants to make money, he's going to have to do it with KOs like Rumble.
GSP, Anderson didn't get filthy rich and for the rest of their lives will be able to earn in this sport because of their legacy with these sideshow one night "money" fights.
Woodley needs to smarten up and be who he is instead of trying to be a dollar store Connor.
He will never get the Conor money
