Rory MacDonald (17-2 MMA, 8-2 UFC) made his case as the next UFC welterweight title contender with a dominant unanimous decision win over Tyron Woodley (13-3 MMA, 3-2 UFC) in the UFC 174 co-main event. “Ares” topped Woodley for three straight rounds in front of his home crowd inside Vancouver’s Rogers Arena to further elevate his status as one of the top 170-pound fighters in the world and possibly earn a shot at divisional kingpin Johny Hendricks somewhere down the line. To see what fans, media and fighters in the MMA community thought about arguably the best performance MacDonald’s career, read the Twitter reactions below: One you’ve all been waiting for!
