Tyron Woodley Set To Finally Meet Colby Covington
4 years agoFormer UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley (15-5-1) will enter the Octagon for the long-awaited grudge match with fellow wrestling-based fighter Colby Covington. After losing his title to Kamaru Usman in March of 2019, Woodley would lose his next bout as well by unanimous decision to top-ranked Gilbert Burns in May. Knowing that Covington will shoot for multiple takedowns, Woodley owns a 90% takedown defense, which will prove massive in this bout. DraftKings has the former welterweight king listed very low at $6,900 for Saturday's main event. If you find yourself tight on funds, Woodley sounds like a great pickup. He has an amazing takedown defense and solid striking, as shown by his six career knockouts.
