Colby Covington vs. Tyron Woodley was what many expected until it wasn't.
The UFC Vegas 11 main event saw Covington on his way to an easy unanimous decision before Woodley suffered an apparent rib injury in round five. Take a look below for the fight highlights.
Colby Covington (no. 2) def. Tyron Woodley (no. 5) by TKO via injury (1:19, R5)
Covington did to Woodley what Kamaru Usman and Gilbert Burns did before. Covington controlled the fight with pressure and volume, cutting up Woodley and arguably earning a 10-8 in the fourth. The fight was stopped in the fifth after Woodley seemingly suffered an apparent rib injury.
No surprises here.
