He turned 36 this year. DC is the only champion who is older at 39. TJ is the next oldest male champ at 32. Cyborg is 33.

MMA is a young man's game and can be brutal to ageing fighters. How much longer does Woodley have at the top? Does he have enough time to prove his claim that he is the greatest WW of all time? Will Till dethrone him in the next fight? Or is he like a Romero who can be competitive into his 40s?

No idea, but the kid in the red shirt skipped arm day (again).
 
No doubt reality will catch up eventually. But it is what it is.
 
He is already starting to look a bit soft in recent pics. Lets see how he looks against Till.
 
He would need another 10 years to make a claim for GOAT and even then not sure he could.
 
No he is getting KOd by Till doughboy pitsburry , He needs to thank god that colby is injured and he is not getting that melting .
 
Tbh his time is coming soon and I don't think it'll be solely related to talent but rather time + talent. In all fairness if he beats till he might be tied with Hughes as the 2nd best ww of all time. Not an exciting run by any means but impressive none the less
 
Yoel Romero is older than both of them....
 
Just a hunch, but I would suspect that part of his past three performances have been him feeling a hair slower and not being as comfortable pulling to the trigger. Not based off evidence really, but guys his age just aren't in their physical prime.

Find out on the next episode of Dragon Ball Z.
 
With some good luck hopefully, we won't have to see Tyronda or Daniel "Eyepoke" Cormier in the cage for much longer.
 
only 2 more wins and he is GoAT. he faced better competition than shit stain pierre.
 
I thought Yoel Romero was the oldest champ.

Some fighters last longer, how much wear and tear does he have? Does he cut a lot of weight? The div is weak so he could hold the belt for a couple of more years
