UFC megastar Conor McGregor is back. With the former two-division champion now set to fight Khabib Nurmagomedov for the UFC lightweight belt, “Notorious” is at the tip of many fighters’ tongues. Now UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley has come forward with a few words.
Speaking to TMZ Sports, Tyron Woodley offered his thoughts on the matter.
“I’ll be there. I’ll be working the desk. I would think that if Khabib’s really about that action, he’s going to do what he says and it’s going to be really tough for Conor to have any lead in that arm to throw that knockout punch in the fourth or fifth round, so I would say Khabib [wins]. But just for selfish purposes, if Conor wins, then the only fight that makes sense is for him to fight me. Try to get a third belt.”
“Conor thought he wanted smoke and then he realized he really didn’t. I would smash him. He’s too little. He’s got one punch. What fighter have I ever fought that’s been able to beat me with one tool?”
