Conor McGregor saw an easy payday in a fight with Tyron Woodley.
McGregor was re-watching Woodley's first fight against Stephen "Wonderboy" Thompson on Friday. That fight took place at UFC 205 in New York City and served as the co-main event to Eddie Alvarez vs. McGregor. "The Notorious" one was critical of Woodley's performance.
Currently watching Woodley Wonderboy 1 on BT Sport. I should have went for that treble real quick. Pre Floyd.

Ah well, the game is still young.
Woodley, a former UFC welterweight champion, clapped back at McGregor. "The Chosen One" told McGregor that he had no chance of taking that belt from him.
