What's Next For Tyron Woodley?

At UFC 228 the stage was set, Darren Till made his walk to the octagon with a roaring ovation. The arena gets dark and Tyron Woodley the UFC Welterweight Champion makes his walk to the octagon with mixed reactions. Bruce Buffer makes the electric introductions and the fighters touch gloves. It is a slow first round as no real damage was done on either side. Tyron and Darren were just testing the waters, but you can clearly see that this is a different Tyron Woodley. The 1st round ends, and the crowd slowly begins to cheer for the UFC Welterweight Champion.

The 2nd round begins as Darren Till plans to start exchanging more trying to land some shots on the welterweight champ. Tyron reads the punch coming moves back to evade the strike and throws a punch that knocks down the undefeated Darren Till. "The Chosen One" Tyron Woodley jumps on Till landing brutal punches and elbows will on the ground but Darren is surviving. He refused to give up and be put away, but then Tyron locks in a D'arce Choke that is really tight as Till tries to squirm his way out of it. A few more seconds go by, and the undefeated Darren Till submits, the fight is over. After this performance, Tyron received his Black Belt along with his Welterweight Championship which is a huge accomplishment.

With a dominating performance and successful title defense, everyone immediately thought of the potential fight between Tyron Woodley and the Former-Interim Champion Colby "Chaos" Covington, especially since UFC 230 still does not have a main event still for that night. The grudge match continues to boil over as it has the potential to be one of the biggest grudge matches of the year right along with Conor Mcgregor vs. Khabib Nurmagomedov which is happening October 6th.

Covington continues to voice his opinion on how he is the real Welterweight Champion in the UFC as the match between Till and Woodley was a number one contender fight in his opinion. He also expressed that he would like to finally step in the octagon with Tyron at Madison Square Garden. During the Press Conference after the UFC 228 event "The Chosen One" Tyron Woodley also expressed some interest into finally meeting Colby Covington and shutting him down because it was originally Colby who was supposed to fight Tyron, not Darren Till. But due to a medical issue with breathing and sinus issue Colby did not accept the fight immediately he wanted to wait a month.

It looks like nothing will be in the way now of the huge fight between Colby and Tyron unless of course Tyron holds off and waits for a super fight to be made which is most likely not going to happen. It would be an amazing way to close out the night at Madison Square Garden in New York if they 2 top contenders finally meet on a card that is still rumored to potentially have the return of Jon "Bones" Jones.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
