Earlier this week, reigning UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley hinted of a move up to the middleweight division in the near future.
”People in the middleweight (division), they need to watch out too,” Woodley said. “I might slide up on one of y’all by the end of the year.
“Wipe out the division clean at welterweight and go up there and either beat (Kelvin) Gastelum up again or take out Robert Whittaker. They are both welterweights anyways. They just don’t know how to cut weight.”
Woodley’s interview caught the attention of Gastelum, who dropped a a split decision to ‘T-Wood’ back in 2015.
