[@Benjamin-1776-]

[@quiettimegaming3642]

Tyron also said the reason he wouldn’t fight Usman is because he hasn’t been training for Usman. And he said he’s been training for a 6’3” striker, not 5’10” wrestler... and it makes sense. Till and Usman are about as opposite as two people could be in terms of their how the use their bodies and their fighting style, so if Tyron had to fight Usman, he would be at an incredible disadvantage.

[@ZPSBestProfileName]

Till and Usman are both listed a 6 foot. Agreed with your points but height wise they are at most 1 inch in height difference, not 5 inches...

[@quiettimegaming3642]

I agree with you... I was just quoting Woodley. And I think Woodley has a valid point (besides her error on their height difference) , as Till and Usman have very different fighting styles, and Woodley has tailored his camp for Till's style... And fighting Usman without properly preparing would not serve Woodley well. And as we all know, "listed" heights aren't always accurate. Shaq was listed at several different heights throughout his career. And when you compare Woodley to Till, to Usman, Till certainly appears to be the tallest of the three. That's obviously due to how he fights (he has a "long" fighting style), especially when compared to Usman's more compact and 'grindy' fighting style. But you're 100% correct.

[@ZPSBestProfileName]

Sorry wasn't sure you were quoting. Fair enough. Although, Till v Thompson looked no different in terms of height and both are listed as 6 foot. He also looked notably shorter than Rockhold on that show with Griffin hosting.

[@quiettimegaming3642]

ZPSBestProfileName Very True... I think Till is 6 feet tall, but he intentionally “stands tall” to give the illusion of being taller than he is. And his overall size makes him look big.

[@ZPSBestProfileName]

Yeah completely agreed. He does that thing Conor does where he tries to leer over his opponent.

[@the_grim_saint]

😎👌🏽

[@johnkhaw3213]

I'm fine with Woodley. People in his division were angry that before he was Champ, he understood that you follow the rankings and that the #1 contender gets to fight the champ, always. Then after he became champ, he started looking for money fights e.g. Conor McGregor, initially not wanting to defend against Thompson. He defended it, it's all fine now but his colleagues were angered that he even tried to prioritize money fights before defenses against the ranked contenders. I get it from his perspective, he wants to set up his family: the hate comes from the fact that everybody else in his division was really rubbed the wrong way from that, and they have a LOT of fans put together (Stephen Thompson, hell even Colby Covington have a lot of supporters).

[@MrMarbles0Xecution]

When the fans responded to Tyrons comment I thought the exact same thing. Tyron has a lot of haters. Haters who have settled into saying they don't like anything about Woodley. Tyron may not be perfect, But from what I see he's a well enough guy that he doesn't deserve to be flat out hated. Though i think it will be difficult for him to win the favor of the fans because he is already the champ. Meaning it will be difficult for Tyron to find opportunities to prove himself and win fans that way. Despite that, I think in the end the fans will look back and respect Tyron as an athlete, competitor and champion.

[@MrMarbles0Xecution]

thank you

[@timothyholley2546]

I'm already one of those people who initially jumped on the bandwagon of hating on him for a few boring performances, but thought more about it and realized the people he was fighting are no joke. Very, very few people can make a Maia or Thompson win look exciting. And then I thought about how active he is as a champion and it really becomes hard to dislike the guy. This will be his FOURTH title defense. It feels like just yesterday he knocked out Lawler.

[@benkuharik]

Timothy Holley just yesterday? That was 2.5 years ago...

[@timothyholley2546]

I said feels like, not was. I know it was a while ago. My point is that he's been active enough that it doesn't seem like it's been that long, compared to champs who might fight once a year.

[@gravy1770]

Same way people hated Mayweather because he wasn't putting himself in harms way for their visual enjoyment and still winning fights with a cerebral style. Then they make up random excuses- "he runs like a chicken"(but still outpunches his opponents), "pillow punches"(had several KOs), "saying he's the greatest"(he is legitimately in the conversation). You may not like the guy outside the ring but when he steps in there, he is one of the most skilled to ever do it. And now he's retired people can admit it. That's Woodley's equivalent in boxing. They'll bring up fights with Maia and Thompson, bring up race comments, but that's it. He's too smart to go into brawls. That's why he could defend his belt so many times and why he could take it from a guy like Lawler. Sometimes I think a lot of mma fans really want to see Roman Empire Gladiator type shit. For me its calculated violence over senseless violence any day. I'm always happy to see guys like Woodley, Mighty Mouse, and Stipe in the cage.

[@cbm3]

I agree with Woodley 100%. Why risk your belt against a guy you havent trained for at all when you could just have a non title fight main event? It wouldnt be his fault if Till misses weight for the third time (which I think will happen). Also I think hell be the champ until he retires, and he may be the most underrated champion in the UFC right now.

[@timoteojuans1964]

Caleb id love to see George beat him. Though I think Till will be hard for him to get through.

[@dangeloread5932]

Timoteo Juans george is a pussy fighting his ping fuck outta here he’s washed😂😂

[@jakejohnson4018]

This is why its happening. Woodley is not underrated and he ducks most fights...He even threw the record for least punches in a round his last fight. His PPV numbers are also the lowest of any champion. Dana knew he would accept Till so he gave him the overweight guy hoping he doesnt make weight and Tyrone has to fight the guys he's ducking....or Dana will crush him publicly(Which he just did yesterday). I think Tyrone is somewhat smart but he should have saw this coming after his actions of saying "he'll never fight on 24 hour notice" when multiple people will a spot under you in the div.

readtom dotcom can't do replacement fighters. Can't force people to accept new fights on a 1 day notice just cause the original opponent missed weight. All they have to do is add more weight classes and do weigh ins the morning of the fight so then the fighters trying to cut 40-50lbs to gain an advantage at a weight class will think twice because they won't be able to rehydrate properly and itll effect them on fight night

I agree. Woodley is right more often than not but there's one big reason why the fans give him so much flak: When constant complaining and moaning about one thing or another is all the fans hear from him, how could he not expect people to give him a hard time? Fair enough that he has these viewpoints and he disagrees with the people he does, like Dana or whoever. It's just that *he's* *too* *damn* *sensitive.* Most of the headlines he makes are complaining about something, it makes him seem like he has a victim mentality at times (even though his reality may be something different). The fans just don't want to hear that. Woodley needs to stop complaining and start being a champion. People don't want to hear a fighter bitch and moan constantly about one thing or another. The best way to win them over is to just shut up and fight. And we all know Woodley can do that.

[@BlvkColossus]

I wonder why so regularly thru combat sports history Black fighters like Woodley (Jones, Silva, Floyd, Ali etc etc) gets their confidence mistaken for arrogance/cockiness and it causes a massive amount of the fan backlash but then you look at guys like Connor, Brock, Chael, and even that bum Covington who with the exception of Connor don’t even back up most of their shit talk yet they get a completely different reaction, Covington being the most baffling.🤔

Then Woodley had the audacity to KO Robbie and become champ and it's been an issue ever since. It's not boring fights because hardcore fans love Holm and Maia. It's not complaining for what he feels he deserve because hardcore fans love the Diaz brothers. The issue is he's not a guy hardcore fans ever saw being champion nor did they back.

Usually agree with Chael... but there are plenty of examples when fights got scrapped or title fights reduced because of weight-cutting issues, including a personal example for himself: Sonnen vs Filho 2 (Filho missed weight, non WEC title fight)** Anderson Silva vs. Travis Lutter UFC 67 (non title fight because Lutter missed weight) Barao-Dillashaw 2 UFC 177 Khabib-Tony UFC 209 Khabib-Max Holloway - UFC 223 - Commission stopped weight cut for Max, Al Iaquinta stepped in Yoel Romero - Robert Whittaker - UFC 225 - Romero missed weight - non title fight **Filho said he would send Sonnen the belt... never did though.

[@NachoChip62]

Let me give you an example of Tyron's words: "The UFC is blatantly racist.".

[@niamhburke3599]

Woodley is a brilliant fighter. His fight IQ is off the charts, but is frequently undervalued because people see him as only an elite athlete with a big right hand. In fact he is a tactician, an excellent boxer, he has great footwork, he has great cardio, his wrestling is about as good as anyone--putting him up there with GSP, Mendes and Cormier to name a few--and has a strong submission game. He simply does not wing it. Some fighters, including Till, Conor, Silva, Ferguson, Pettis and Holloway to name a few, rely on flow and improvisation. They enter with a game plan, but they rely on reads, movement and surprise to win matches. Woodley is more like Cormier, GSP, Dillashaw, Cruz and Aldo; fighters who prepare against a fighters tendencies so that half of the fight is decided in advance. In many ways this style is harder to appreciate. It is why GSP was often called boring for his wrestling heavy, yet dominating matches, it is why Aldo, despite an incredible reign, was never treated as a GOAT, it is why Cormier got so much criticism against Silva and so on. But Woodley will keep on winning no matter what. He is 36 yet in the shape of a man in his 20s, his genetics are challenged only by Romero. And his next matchup, Covington, has absolutely no chance.

I never fully appreciated how right he was until I got into a relationship with a girl that had obviously decided way before I came around that she lived in an angry hostile world. It was her entire attitude about everything. She wasn't happy unless she was unhappy. It also became very apparent to me the world I chose to live in the as very benevolent. People may try to yell you that the world is the world you can't decide. It's like oh yes you can. In fact everyone does whether they realize it or not. Once you do realize it, it affects ones outlook, choices, decisions you make in any given situation. For instance, am I going to go agro on some asshole that cut me off at the gas pump? Fuck no!

[@r1299]

If you're the goat self-proclaimed or otherwise you fight anybody, anywhere, at anytime PERIOD. If your a calculated business-minded cautious overthinking fighter who fights not to lose it makes you smart, it doesnt make you the goat.

[@blaze556922]

I've never once heard Woodley be on the right side of anything or be nice. Not a single time. There is a reason no other fighters praise him and even analysts have nothing to say about his fights. He is fighting not to lose instead of fighting to win and has turned a great division to shit. Look how exciting it was when Robbie brought life back to 170 after GSP had ruined it for a decade.

[@cannabruh3396]

I love it too! I think it's smart business to book the replacement even if the scheduled events occur 99% of the time.

[@cannabruh3396]

Not only are you covering your ass in the case where either fighter misses/injured, it makes the narrative that much more complex and entertaining.

[@Osk42]

So if Woodley or Till wins, is Usman next in line? That would be a great way to get fighters to want to be a stand in if something happens in a title fight. If you don't fill in, you are the next fighter for the belt.

[@rpdecks]

I didn’t think TW guarantees a fight w Till. Didn’t he just say it was more likely it would be Till if Till misses weight? I think he still left himself a way out and room to negotiate. He for sure said no way it’s KU

[@superduty2023]

What if Till gets hurt a week out. Will Woodley not fight Usman? Also Chael thanks for calling it the Bullpen. I suggested it on one of your videos

[@michaeljordan4358]

I love watching Chael Sonnen talk ...... its weird

[@thegrindpodcastwithdanielr3781]

Chael and Dominick for UFC commentary. Boot Rogan.

[@DavidGraham47]

The reason he would still fight Till if Till misses weight is because if he loses he keeps the belt because it becomes a no. Title and has the excuse of the weight. I guarantee you if he turned down the Usman fight if Till missed weight Dana would strip him of the title

[@Hay-tn6hz]

I used to be a Tyron fan until his interviews with Ariel when he began throwing race every time someone tried to compliment him. That stuff gets so old.

[@ButterBallTheOpossum]

" We are who we pretend to be" is an oxymoron

[@InsidiousSwede]

Fun Fact: Darren Till has NEVER had a professional fight on American soil...

[@goldjustgold5942]

I think it's because he KNOWS it'll be different over here and no one is going to miss his ass in America.

[@titansteelful]

On point Mr Chael

[@sk8punk318]

Uh...have you ever listened to that big baby? It's always poor me, I don't get any "money fights", everyone boo's me and the list goes on. The dude is obsessed with skin color and racism. It's so annoying and difficult trying to listen to him go on and on about how racism and his skin color has a big impact on his career and even the sport/UFC.

[@cdubyawilson8955]

Sounds like you only read comments and not watch fights

[@carlosbonilla4537]

Been saying this since everyone started saying he wouldn't fight at all. People are just reaching for a reason to hate on woodley.

[@bensmith5288]

Boring to describe a fighter is stupid .. i respect them all and youll find that the people who critise them are the ones who've never had a scrap

[@davidbell1487]

The most knowledgeable guy in the business. ...

[@llabronco]

He's an intelligent fighter who has "boring" fights in order to win some times, and he's a powerful, confident black man haha

[@darkmagician1710]

This is pretty ironic considering that he speaks English and violence. He's the only person to beat Maia lately that hurt him and had him in trouble and is the only welterweight to come close to finishing Wonderboy in the UFC. Let's not forget the first round knockout of Lawler for the strap.

[@adlad3199]

Love T-Woodley. He's shown his all round ability, a true fighter. Whatever he speaks is fact, yes, the race thing was unnecessary, but he always fights the true number 1 contenders.

[@NickPDX22]

Dana’s Fault !

[@arijao92]

People dont like Tyron because he is a cry baby and in recent events a boring fighter but I agree with him though that next guy should be Till because thats the guy Tyron has been training for and it is just an awesome match up

[@ZeeshanAhmed-gh5lm]

Tyrone Woodley is a great fighter with a genuine personality. The problem is his genuine personality. GSP has a safe fighting style and so does Woodley, The problem is when he tries to act cool while the boos are getting to him. I think he is KOs or goes to a War with Till and wins, The fans will comeback to his side again.

[@chrishaswell4405]

He won the belt “then immediately didn’t want to defend against a number 1 contender wanted a money fight” and before people say Conor never defends a belt when your doing 1/1.6 mil ppv buys you can do what you want !!! his fighting style since becoming champion has been don’t lose a fight rather then go and win the fight like Conor once said “this company is looking for finishes not boring decisions” and finally he tried to play a racism card which was very embarrassing to watch and that’s why “a lot of fans” don’t like him

[@mikem1464]

Chael, I wanna see what you're looking at up there!

[@thewouldyouratherguy]

Wrong. He said if Till drops out for any reason he won’t fight usman. I think he‘s right not to but we didn’t misunderstand him.

[@joenicholas93]

Kevin Lee could do with listening to that last part of the video about putting everyone down. Has that guy ever given props to a fighter?

[@slice157]

Chael said clout lmao

[@kellyokamoto1604]

I personally don't care for Woodley's persona WHEN HE PLAYS THE VICTIM OR PULLS THE RACE CARD. Other than that, I find him intelligent, forthright and straightforward when he has the mike. In the cage, he's a beast. I'd love to see him vs GSP or Khabib or maybe even Mr. Knuckles?

[@quanticprophecy]

Woodley's instagram videos where he cuts a promo while moping up his sweat and taking off his sooks made him really likable. So finally we have a good face vs heel match with Darren fuck my family Till making a great villain.

[@dontdoittoyoself6786]

He's just the most hated not misnterpeted. He let's the trolls get to him and Dana adds fuel to the fire for the trolls. Some of the trolls are racist and some aren't. Tyron needed to not get caught up in social media. He just made the mistake that a lot of people do.

[@janrudzki8612]

I´m not a big fan of Woodley, but what I like even less than Woodley are fans hating on him. He has two "boring" dominant fights and all of a sudden people forget what a performances he had before.

[@InsidiousSwede]

Most people probably never saw him fight before the last couple of fights. Besides, the UFC is a "what have you done for me lately" business..

[@trevercampbell8757]

"Tyron is a really hard fart for me" me too Chael, me too

[@Xivinux]

I dont understand the negativity around Tyron, hes a champ and an amazing champ at that. Amazing fighter amazing personalitu

[@kenaaronbabbit9987]

Chael says misinterpreted and nice guy good guy a lot lol

[@SuperKellx]

Biggest and lousiest reason I’ve seen mma fans dislike Woodley is because they can’t let go of this “victim” ideal they claim he’s pulling. The only ones hung up on that however are the ones that are afraid to confront and talk about real controversy like that. Hell its literally the o lot talking point they like to use. Some mma fans are simply ignorant.

[@knipesize]

I enjoy ur talks
