UFC 205 Video: Tyron Woodley ‘bummed’ title defense was declared a draw

Despite the fact that he technically retained his welterweight championship, Tyron Woodley walked away from his UFC 205 fight against Stephen Thompson slightly disappointed.

Tyron Woodley admitted that his first title defense was a “tough fight.” But “The Chosen One” believes he should have won the bout, weven though it was judged a majority draw.

Interestingly, Woodley was initially announced the winner of the matchup; announcer Bruce Buffer declared him the split decision winner, even though he read off two draw scorecards. Moments later, Buffer double-checked with the commission, and corrected the error, instead declaring the fight a majority draw.
