I am not educated, huh? I have a phd and masters degree from UCLA, and a BA from Cornell. I teach at two universities, and have published several texts across peer reviewed academic journals. I have been following the sport since 1999, and have trained BJJ and boxing.
So now, let us hear your educational credentials, "my boy".
You said I made a baselesss true claim and an insult. But I didn't make two claims, I made one, conditional claim. The antecedents of asserted conditional statements are unasserted components of those conditionals. And the antecedent of my conditional was "If you believe that
Tyron and Eddie are not far apart in size...". Of course that is true, but that's not what you mean.
What you want to claim is that the highlighted part is true, that my conditional implied that Tyron and Eddie were
not similar in size, and that I never provided evidence for
the latter claim.
You
speculated that the weight range between Eddie and Tyron was between 10lbs and 15lbs "on a good day". So your upper bound is 15lbs.
Eddie says:
"I come into camps around 186 pounds. ... I'm not going to listen to somebody from the outside tell me what weight I should be fighting at."

Tyron says:
"I walk at around 205lbs"
They are both a comparably
lean 5"9. That
19lbs of a difference pre-camp, which is already
4lbs more than your upper bound suggests, and a
9lbs more than your lower bound. Which means you were wrong. If you want to pretend that 19lbs of difference in weight is negligible, then be my guest, but I'm done here.
Now, Conor is said to walk at around 170lbs or even under off camp, which would make him a whooping 35lbs smaller than Woodley off camp.
I have wasted enough time with you. Bye.
