Back in April, Tyron Woodley surrendered the UFC welterweight title to Kamaru Usman. Ever since, he’s been campaigning for a do-over with the new champion.<\/p>\n

Woodley once again called for that rematch with Usman over the weekend, shortly after news surfaced that negotiations for a bout between Usman and Colby Covington had fizzled<\/a>. He did so in the replies to an Instagram post from ESPN reporter Ariel Helwani.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince Colby\u2019s being an b**ch per usual! @usman84kg what you say we run this back! If any thing is \u201c#supernecessary\u201d it\u2019s this!\u201d<\/em> – Tyron Woodley on Instagram.<\/p>\n

As aforementioned, this is not the first time Tyron Woodley has called for a second fight with Kamaru Usman. He also did so earlier this summer.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt looks like me and Usman are sitting out so maybe a rematch against Usman\u201d he told\u00a0TSN\u2019s Aaron Bronsteter.\u00a0<\/a>\u201cI should be ready for November if that\u2019s when they want to do it, for sure. I would love to fight Usman in November. He said he would be open to it as well, so I\u2019m excited to go out there and get my belt back.”<\/p>\n

In the same conversation, Woodley assured that a rematch with Usman would unfurl differently.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe all know what I\u2019m capable of,\u201d he said. \u201cWe all know Tyron Woodley when he\u2019s at his best and we could see that wasn\u2019t me that night. I just want to go out there and redeem myself, win in dominant fashion and get my belt back.\u201d<\/p>\n
