So why would till "lookin" 2 weightclasses "bigger" mean woodley has his "hands" full?we know the latter's stock and trade:stopitslime:come on
Yes, because saying Woodley has his hands full means he's going to literally have Till in his fukking hands...smh, its a figure of speech, are you a native English speaker? Size matters everywhere, Thompson/Till was fought on the feet and the first thing out of Thompson's mouth after the fight was that Till was a big boy. Thompson was trying to do those karate blitzes and all Till had to do was put his arms up and Thompson got stonewalled. Woodley is going to have issues trying to blast off the fence or in space to get his strikes off, Till already a more skilled striker to begin with, size difference is only going to enhance it.

I like TJ Dillashaw
Hes the best out of a bad bunch of 3 doucheys. Dont know why I rooted against him in both the cody and dominick fights but not this time. Those tweets from cody has made me actually care about that fight now

No i am not a native english speaker and I did get the turn of phrase dont see the need to get emotional tho its just mma talk. I already stated why woodley will most likely lose and size and reach play a factor in that so what the hell are we discussing?

Y'all were not joking about how big Till looked during the conference :skip:

This sport is crazy, last night saw the Diaz/Poirer fight was booked :whoo:

Then at break during work, hearing that neither of them are fighting now :bryan:

Is the assumption that they thought they would be on the Connor card and get ppv points off it :lupe:

perhaps I misunderstood the tweet cuz I thought they were tellin their followers 'they arent fighting on that card as (in at 239) F ufc..'.

sad aint it? there was a time where a fighter just went out there did there job and accepted what they could get with their following.If ufc placed them on a card with brock, ronda or gsp they were thanking their stars. To now have a queue of fighters in the same division mind you openly lobby to be on the undercard of a contemporary is something I have never seen before.

LOL@Diaz and Poirier both threatening to pull out. Looks like Dana lied to them and told them Connor was on that NY card.
