Tyron Woodley: ‘I’ve got a weird peace for somebody who just got they ass whooped’

Tyron Woodley isn’t happy with his loss to Gilbert Burns, but he’s in a much different place following this fight than when he lost the UFC welterweight title to Kamaru Usman in 2019.

After a 15-month layoff, Woodley returned to action on Saturday night in Las Vegas and ended up losing a lopsided decision to Burns, who has now picked up four straight wins at welterweight. While it’s now his second loss in a row overall, Woodley was in a better place compared to how he felt after his fight with Usman, which he described as an out-of-body experience that he couldn’t quite explain.
