Tyron Woodley set to defend title vs. Kamaru Usman – not Colby Covington – at UFC 235

Finally, the UFC welterweight title picture is clear – and champion Tyron Woodley will get to defend, after all.

After weeks of trash talk and finger pointing on social media between Woodley, Colby Covington and Kamaru Usman, it’s Woodley and Usman who have won out in the end.

A person with knowledge of the situation confirmed to MMAjunkie that Woodley will meet Usman on March 2 at UFC 235 from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. ESPN.com first reported the booking Sunday after a tweet from Usman’s manager, Ali Abdelaziz, hinted that the bout was a done deal.

Woodley (19-3-1 MMA, 9-2-1 UFC) vs. Usman (14-1 MMA, 9-0 UFC) will serve as the UFC 235 co-main event, with Jon Jones’ light heavyweight title defense vs. Anthony Smith as the headliner provided Jones receives a license to fight in Nevada.

The Woodley-Usman booking means Covington (14-1 MMA, 9-1 UFC) is left on the outside looking in after winning an interim title last June at UFC 225, which he parlayed into a White House visit with President Donald Trump.

A title-unification bout between Woodley and Covington originally had been targeted for UFC 228 in September. But it fell through after Covington needed surgery to repair a nasal injury. Woodley went on to defend his title with a second-round submission of Darren Till at the event.
