I would love if the UFC did this fight. Mostly because it would annoy Woodley!
This fight, on fight pass, I 100% approve!

I thought it was RDA vs Robbie winner getting Woodley. But with 219 still needing a headline would they go short notice Woodley vs Colby and see who comes out the best from RDA, Robbie, Till, and Thompson (well not Thompson sense he's had his shots)

I remember Dana saying Woodley would face the winner of Lawler vs RDA in 2018. I think thats probly next for him. Would be shocked if it was Covington

Would rather RDA/Lawler winner face Till/Thomson winner for interim title.

That might only happen if Woodley goes up to fight GSP.

WW division needs a second belt anyways. Woodley is a crummy unexciting champ. He's had 3 straight awful fights.
No GSP fight either. Us Canadians will revolt if they waste a GSP fight on woods!

GSP was pretty political in the post fight int. His corner/team didnt sound like another fight at 185 was likely. If GSP fights Woodley, I think its at 170. I dunno. Very interesting decision for GSP to make. Could effect a lot of people

I think if Darren Till wins this fight he'll get a title shot, not Wonderboy he's going to need to beat Robbie Lawler.
Covington is likely playing the Jacare role in the division where they'll keep him around as an injury replacement for these big fights.
With GSP they've got him on a plus 1 contract so if he loses to Robert Whitaker he's going to have an immediate title shot at Woodley

UFC wants to propel a fight in uk for Darren Till so give him the the most awkward of strikers in the division lol, nice work matchmakers. Winner of Ponzinibbio v Perry would’ve been a better fight, a more winnable one anyways. Tough fight for Till.

Is till popular? That's news to me good luck to him I don't see him being able to close the distance on wonderboy but if he can he can win

He just obliterated and embarrassed a high ranked, very popular fighter indeed in a main event and he’s ranked in the top 10 in a very tough division, so yeah, he’s getting there. If you wanna pretend you don’t know him then fine, go ahead? Even if he loses he’s still gonna be popular, you know why? Cuz he’ll probably be expected too, his stock will still rise(especially if this is another main event).

MMA fighting has an article saying that Thompsons coach (dad) is saying at this time they have no interest in a fight with Till. Saying he still needs to prove himself on top of Wonderboy possibly having both thumbs broken and ligament damage he is seeing a doctor tomorrow.
