Tyron Woodley reveals his plan to become the welterweight GOAT (greatest of all-time) during his current title reign.

That’s a great goal to have, but he’ll have a tough challenge to do just that. That is mainly due to the fact that he will have to surpass former UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre. Woodley will make his next title defense against Kamaru Usman in the co-headliner of UFC 235.

As far as his plan, he knows he just has to keep winning and eventually he’ll become the next GOAT. As for Usman, there’s no bad blood after a press conference in January where they traded some harsh words.

“Performances, performances, performances,” Woodley told MMAjunkie. “Darren Till, that was me showing you guys: This is what you can expect. All I’ve got to do is just keep doing that. If I do that, (expletive), I might be able to do that Saturday and that may be enough right there to just go out there and whoop this kid up.”

“It didn’t get personal, I just can’t let him sit there and talk (expletive) and not believe it,” Woodley said. “You don’t sound confident, you don’t sound like you believe it and this entire time it’s been one person talking: him. … I don’t have to talk, I just have to go out there and do.”

The UFC 235 pay-per-view event is set to take place on Saturday, March 2, 2019 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
