Tyron Woodley and Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson threw down in a classic welterweight title bout in the co-main event of tonight’s (Sat., November 12, 2016) UFC 205 from Madison Square Garden in New York City, but it wasn’t without its fair share of uncertainty.
It was a back-and-forth affair that saw the champion control Thompson with his respected NCAA All-American wrestling game as he bloodied the surging challenger with an elbow. In the following two rounds, Thompson was able to use his top-notch striking game to pressure the champion with stifling punches, but he didn’t seem to unload his usual volume.
In the fourth, it was nearly over when Woodley dropped the challenger with some big shots, following to the mat with what appeared to be a fight-ending guillotine that “Wonderboy” somehow endured to actually land in top position to rain down shots as the round expired. Thompson controlled the fifth on a tired Woodley, but it apparently wasn’t enough to get him the win, as it Bruce Buffer went through some confusion before reading off a 47-47, 47-47, 48-47 split decision win for Woodley.
But it was then re-announced as a majority draw in a wild fight that will be almost certainly happen again. Until then, watch the full fight video highlights of the riveting fight right here:
