Fucking BS worst fight ever @ufc

Why doesn't T-wood just go after Thomson. He has the ability to hurt him.

I'm calling majority draw woodley

I have it scored another draw.......
— Dan Hangman Hooker (@danthehangman) March 5, 2017
I think @TWooodley wins that fight. Not bias, but wonderboy played the safest shit ever. Based on damage woodley wins that.
— Erik Jon Koch (@NEWBREED04) March 5, 2017
When one guy decides to win while not receiving damage and the other guy decides to lose while not receiving damage. #ufc209

He's so explosive. Wish he would've done it earlier. Oh well. I'm on my way. You'll see what I'm about soon enough #Platinum

Big finish. 3-2 wonderboy. Not close enough for a 10-8 Rd in my opinion.
— Chris Camozzi (@ChrisCamozzi) March 5, 2017
Thought Wonderboy won, but at least someone won, unlike the 1st. #ufc209
— The Spartan (@EliasTheodorou) March 5, 2017
