Picking & Grinning: UFC 209 ‘Woodley vs. Thompson 2’


Five rounds were not enough to settle the score between Ultimate Fighting Championship welterweight titleholder Tyron Woodley and No. 1 contender Stephen Thompson.

A little less than four months after they battled to a majority draw, they will meet again in the UFC 209 headliner on Saturday at the T-Mobile Arena. The rest of the four-fight main card features a middleweight tilt pairing Rashad Evans with four-time Olympian Daniel Kelly, a lightweight affair pitting Lando Vannata against David Teymur and a heavyweight rematch slotting Alistair Overeem opposite Mark Hunt.
