Tyron Woodley fires back at fans calling him 'boring': They have short term memory loss

Tyron Woodley and Stephen Thompson were met with a chorus of boos both during and after their welterweight championship rematch at UFC 209 last weekend.

There was minimal action throughout the bout, with both men hesitant to pull the trigger and seemingly unable to find their timing.

'T-Wood' came to life in the fifth round, blasting 'Wonderboy' with a barrage of strikes to seal the majority decision win, but it wasn't enough to convince the fans of a great performance.

Their last bout at UFC 205, which contained much more action, went to a draw but Woodley, a traditionally explosive fighter with some of the heaviest hands in the division, has scored plenty of KO's in the past, finishing the likes of Robbie Lawler and Dong Hyun Kim.
